Just touching base, to get you started..
I think the front hubs are bad. If it sounds like rocks in a tumbler, then it might be that. Also, for $60 each, its just good insurance to replace them anyways. As for ride height, Griggs recommends 7.5" track, and 8" street. Once you set height, then you can set bumpsteer. We'll talk more later...

I replaced the front hubs and that got rid of most of the noise. I still could hear the brake calipers clanking around so I suspected warped front rotors. I replaced the drilled and slotted front rotors for stock 98 cobra front rotors and now all the funky noises are gone.
I am now ready to tackle the task of dialing in the suspension if you have any pointers. Thanks,

This car needs a 5 speed conversion before I do that.
