      It hasn't been lowered yet ... just 35 yr. old springs and the wider tires fill up the wheel wells . To lower the rear, just use lowering blocks between spring and axle. Check the AMC forums for info. on lowering plates for front spindles (offset holes for the bolt-on AMC spindle). The lowering plates are "low-dollar" compared to the coil over kit. The KYB shocks are same as Mustang front and Camaro rear. I think some guys have changed the front coil lower seat to one from an early Mustang so they can use common Mustang springs. Not much readily available for AMC, so need to be resourceful. Hope this helps.
