Here is a photo of my original stock 57 Tbird spring standing next to the CC850 Aerostar spring from Rockauto. The standing free height difference is substantial. Is this what others have found? I thought I had cut the original springs but looking them over I didn't when I replaced them 7(?) years ago. Any comments will help. Don't want to make a mistake putting this on with the Granada spindles.

I test fitted the Granada spindles and Aerostar front springs to get an idea of the ride height. It sits at 24 1/8 inches at the fender lip though the hub to the floor. Steering clearance seems good but will have to be careful on turning into driveways, etc. too fast. The tie rod holes in the spindles will need reaming to accept the tie rod end studs. I put the reamer into the hole to see where it wants to start cutting and it starts at the top of the hole.
