visual inspection of my front LCAs can I go lower?

It will be this weekend before I can post pictures. I didn't take any when I was looking at the car.

I'm interested in the suspension working correctly versus looking good. Everything I have read says the lower ball joint should not be higher than the LCA frame bolt which is the pivot point while the car is on its suspension. Is that not correct?

Thanks

The SPC lowers from Mark at SC&C have quite a bit of lowering built into them, a couple of inches. Then you can use their spacers to reduce the amount of lowering. Not sure if they sell them for a second gen though. Give Mark a call.

That sounds right. My car has them about even and its very low. I don't think I could lower it any and run it on the street still. In fact im certain if I didn't have the AFCO tall ball joint and its little bit of extra lift, that my tires wouldn't fit at all.
