Mentioned Pro9 because they're tubular with spring plate on top hence need even lower springs to sit at same height.

Other option is chopping up factory item like Muscle Garage or Lowed Fab sell....can also buy brace kits off ebay to do same thing...they eventually bend with a lot of power,launching on slicks.

Grind down seat bolt,mod or buy lower control arms,15x7 chasers with 255/60 radials with vh/k v8 salisbury or vl borgwarner is most common way for drag racers.

Choose intended purpose(street or drags)
First pick wheels & offset,then tyre size & diff + mods
Then see if you got the budget & labour.

If it's 6cyl car basically starting from scratch in most cases.

Thanks mate, I appreciate your patience. I’m starting to get my head around it. Your last reply pretty much sums up what I’m looking at doing. I’ll start a build thread when I get it going, just got to finish off my XW falcon first.

Just looked at the pro9 upper and lower arms they look good but there’s three kit I’ll have to look into them further.
