    i have the hotckis tvs for my wifes 79z. lowers car by 1.5" in rear and 2" in front. i do not have a problem with this-but my wife does. is there any way to use the tvs and still retain the stock ride height? are there parts out there that can be used in conjunction with tvs to keep stock ride height? is there anyone out there that finds the tvs too low?( trying to convince my wife that all will be good). thanks.

    You can raise the car,
    Longer spring shackle's out back and spring spacers in the front
    But I don't reccomend it
