I read with much interest this thread concerning the drop. Can someone provide step by step directions to accomplish this? Perhaps a link to a website.

I own a 1966 coupe but have never worked on the front suspension. Looking behind the wheels I notice covers or plates bolted around the top portion of the coil springs. Would assume these should be removed to apply the spring compressors.

"Reposition the hole 1 inch down & 1/8 inch to the rear" This would be 2 holes per side?

I do grease the car and cannot find grease fitting on driver side ball joint (think it is origional). Passenger side has been replaced and gets lubed.

When complete vehicle should be aligned?

Thanks for any advice or info.

Lou
