Thanks man! Car looks great. How far do you normally tilt 03^ Until she’s level. Different for everyone with tire height, preferred bumper height, and a arm clearance.

Best place to tilt an 03 is in front of the cradle...

Hey guys, I see a lot of 5-6” of bumper height dropped when tilting . A lot of the tilting is about Vic’s . I have a 90 Lincoln town car that I’m tilting at the boxes . Looking at the frame, I don’t think it needs that much but I’m not 100% sure as I’ve never tilted before . Does someone have a rough number I should be dropping it if I’m measuring from the floor to the bumper? Also, I’m welding a arms forward and running different tires on the front . Should I have this done before I tilt? Thanks

The best thing to do is set the car on the tires your running, set rear end height where you want then tilt the front frame level

Curious since I've never went this route. I'm putting on a new stub and curious if cold bending the rail is better vs cutting my rail at a angle to weld on and then just pressure the frame for down tube?
Thoughts? Input?
