Hello everyone,
How do you lower the front end on my 70 Challenger ?
I want to go old school and raise the rear a little with air shocks
and lower the front a couple of inches ?

Thanks in advance..Big Al.

That look will get you broken rear shock mounts and fast front tire wear as well as mashed headers if you have them. You can just loosen the torsion bar bolts until you either bottom out the stops or get the look you want. And then find a place to attempt to do an alignment.
Section 2 of your Factory Service Manual has the torsion bar information.
By the way, your car is beautiful the way it is.

Thanks ... I think I'll leave them the way they are... don't want to mess anything up.
