Hi all,

I was hoping we could get some help from the community on some measurements that we're looking for.

We need the distance between the LCA lower shock mounting bolts and the upper shock bolts on the frame. We need this distance at stock ride height.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My '67 just happens to be on the lift, no shocks or springs! I have 11 15/16" from inside of spring pocket/upper shock mount to bottom of lower control arm shock mounting point. This is at a "Z" dimension of 2 5/8" (This is approximately the Chevy build average depending on which options are on the car). "Z" is the difference between the center of the rear lower control arm pivot bolt (higher) and the lower inboard edge of the lower ball joint (lower). My old Koni shocks are 13 1/2" extended and 9" retracted so midstroke is 11 1/4".
