Does anyone have a bone stock 66 cutlass/442 that they can measure the rear body height?

ground level to the center top of the rear wheel well? (knowing what size tires you have also would help, he has 235/60 15's)

The rear of a friends 66 442 sits way too high... I suggested ordering new stock rear springs as the cars usually sat low in back originally, but started thinking about it- they may be stock now...

HIs front springs have been cut by the previous owner so it sits lower, just not sure if that is affecting the rear height or if he's got wagon rear springs or something. He likes the way it sits in front, just wants the back down 1/2" to 1" from where it is now- just enough so it still has a little rake...

So we need to decide if he should order stock sprigns, or lowering springs to get it down in back.

(note, he does not have air shocks, spacers, or anything else in there adding to the height)

 

I think mine sits high also but it's stock but not a 442. I can get the measurement if you like. Maybe not. Maybe I just like it lower

 

Now that I look at his again it does look high

 

26" to the top of the wheel opening.
