    Which looks better? Front raised up to level as in picture #1 or lowered as in picture #2?

    Thanks for your input.I am trying to decide where to set it and pic one is lowered all of the way down and pic two is raised to its maximim. I kinda agree with 4C. I had the front aligned and the torsion bars adjusted but I am thinking I had it raised too high.
     :dontknow: Looks like I will be stuck with it for a while as I need to get other things done and then I will worry about that.

    I liked mine raised, gave morre ground clearance for the headers for one thing.  Its not that big a deal to change though.

    Here's a picture of one of my all time favorites, looks like it's pretty stock height in the front.

    Raised, just DON'T lower the back or you'll get that common Challenger "fat as$" look.  :ack:
    Makes the car like like a typical heavy muscle car. I like Chrycos mates 71 but theres a fine line between  :D and  :-\


    It's a Challenger either way so I'm happy.  :guitar: :grinyes:
