The ride height depends on the chassis. The lowest point on all chassis is the front crossmember. With a 26" tall front tire, the bottom of the front crossmember is 4-7/8" off the ground.
Ride Heights at rocker panels:
- Based off a 26" front and 28" rear tire.
- There is variance in these numbers due to adjustability of the coilovers and the differences from front to rear. Tire size will also play a role in this.
- Chassis that will require fabricating a new main floor section (Nova and 2nd Gen) can really be moved up or down on the frame to the desired ride height
.
- 1st Gen Camaro: 6" - 7"
- 2nd Gen Camaro: 4.5" - 6" (2nd gen in earlier pictures is set at 4.5" at front of rocker and 5.5" at rear)
- Nova: 4" - 6" (Red patina'd nova in previous pics is at 4.5" front and 5" rear. Bare steel nova on the table is at 4" front and 5")
- 55-57 Chevy: 6", can be made lower if desired
- 67-72 C10 Pick Up: 5" front, 7" rear (with a 27" tall front and 30.5" tall rear tire)
- Mustang: 5" - 6" (could be lower, but had to be raised for 5.0L and 5.4L height clearance)
