Default Lowering 67 Cuda

I'm doing a 67 notchback . I Have crate 5.7 Hemi & 4sp I'm looking for info on lowering aprox 3" in front and 4" in rear.I know I can get about inch and half with torsion bars. I don't want to go to air system. Thanks Acuda

I bumped this up here in hopes you'd get an answer quicker.
I don't know of any dropped spindles for A-body Mopars, and as you stated, the amount of lowering you can do by adjusting the T-bars is pretty limited.
As for the rear springs, you could de-arch those, but there may be new springs available that are already lowered somewhat. A good spring shop may even be able to make you a set. I don't like lowering blocks though, especially anything over a couple of inches. They put too much additional twisting stress on the springs, IMHO.

Your best bet is going to be one of the coil over conversions K-members for the front.

In mopar collector's guide a few months ago there were drop spindles specifically for mopar i.e. cuda's, I will try to dig up the ad. They were reasonably priced, too. It said "finally, lowereing spindles for Mopar..." I will check tonight for you, buddy.

There is also aftermarket front spring hangers with multiple mounting holes that will let the spring sit higher in the bracket, lowering the car.

Fat Man Fabrications has drop spindles, 2" drop, for @ 500 a pair. Look in Mopar Collector's Guide this month's issue. Most applications, quality fit and finish from what I can see, hard to say for sure, but check it out.
