Well we all have different ideas of how we want out chargers to sit, some low in front, high in back. Some Lowered,.. Some high and mighty,.. some sit that way cause the engine is missing,. what's your feelings on this pressing issue?..
Post your pics here...  :icon_smile_shy:

That looks great.  I prefer the low in front and high in the back. :yesnod:  However I could go with the old style drag setup with the high front.

I like the lower in the front look.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

Daddy ran whiskey in a big black dodge
bought it at an auction at the masons lodge,
Johnson County Sherriff painted on the side,
just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside,
well him and my uncle tore that engine down,
I still remember that rumblin' sound.....

i suspect it's approx the same as 8 wheelers' who's got the red lowered '68 R/T.. this look says to me more G.T. then Super Stock...

I'm working on this right now as a matter of fact, gotta crank on the bars now as it's nose is high.

Doug's '70 has the stance I'm trying to copy again.   I t worked on the blue car.

Gotta watch this thread for more ideas.

The classic low/raised look. Best for musclecars - escpecially the long B bodys.

My car is currently jacked up in the front. It wasn't choice, but I bought way too large a tire and needed clearance. I will be getting smaller ones soon and fixing the air shocks in the rear as well.

I like the stance on my "70:



Better now with the new tires, and even better now that the frontend was lowered just a hair bit more.

Will get some pix once she returns.

   Did someone mention "Hign in front, low in back"?      Here is my front raised up '68.  heh   

          The 440 is out of it right now,   does anyone know how much the front might lower and the rear raise when the motor goes back in?

  I plan on putting taller and wider tiires on the rear and lowering the front extra, then put on a front air dam , some other site member has one on his Charger he said he got from a '69 Camaro, ya, it looks good, don't laugh.  heh.   Anyone know who's car that is I am talking about? got a pic?
Thanks, Nate




Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.

Alright, I have tried to photochop my Charger to give it the stance I am going for with it...higher in front, lower in back. I also put slots on it. Needless to say it turned out horrible. Here it is anyways  :-\:

I lowered the front of mine an inch or so. Wished it was a bit lower.

Could there be a Universal Formula ?

I think 9/10ths of the time it's the same heights that looks right on an old muscle car, no matter what kind of car and no matter what wheel/tire combo it has:  The center of the rear wheel is about even with the bottom edge of the rocker panel, and then the front end should be a small (but noticeable) amount lower than that.

(Is this your car, Charger-440-4spd?  I just surfed a pic out of the net randomly.)

Mine has always sat a little high in the front. Most people like it, but I'm the real judge and jury. Maybe I'll finally lower it this year an inch or two. I will die before I add air shocks btw.
