Hi guys,

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking that 3-4" of travel of upward should be enough. "Pro" you replied that your car had about 2.5" up and down, do you find that to be enough or does the car bottom out on the bumps a lot. When you wrote about un-bolting the shocks and allowing the frame to travel down to the bumps is good advice, but that's the problem we have. There aren't any bumps yet, we have to fabricate them once we settle on how much suspension travel we will allow. Thanks again for the replies, I will probably be asking quite a few questions over the next few months. We have built quite a few different projects over the years (mainly trucks and ralley cars), but this is the first street rod. It makes it a lot more difficult because we didn't start the project. When it got to my shop, it was a body shell, a partially completed frame and hundreds of bits and pieces in 2 truck loads of boxes and parts. There is a reason my hair has turned completely grey at 40
