New ride height = new pinion angle???
I put my back end back to stock ride height so I was wondering if that would mess with my pinion angle? Moved the LCA's back to the stock position in addition to stock springs so I wanted to check. Thanks!!!

no need to mess with it, because the pinion angle on our cars is done with the torque arm. If you have an adjustable torque arm, and you didn't change it, then you are still in good shape.
I have to ask though, why would you go back to stock height?

Wanted to make room for a True Dual setup. I know that I won't gain really anything since my motor is virtually stock and bolt ons, however, I am working back to front on the car. First came the bolt ons, then all of the suspension and rear end and now I have left the transmission and the motor.
Plus, as it stands now, I can't even back out of my driveway without dragging the exhaust. I am sure part of it is the Y-pipe appears to have a little sag to it, but I will have even less room with duals coming out the back. I love the look of the car, but I would rather not have to listen to the exhaust dragging every time I drive it.
It's OK...I am sure I will regret it later....

One of the best things I've done so far was to increase the ride height, at least in the front. It looks mean when it's slammed, but the benifits you get when raising it are well worth it. Now if you were gonna throw some 24"s on it or something like that, it would be a different story....

what benefits do you see with raising the ride height? Other than having a little more ground clearance?
I have eibach pro-kit on my car and I fabricated my own true duals and I don't really have a problem anywhere with scraping. Only the occasional high speed bump scrape and thats about it.
