Sorry I was in the UK on vacation. The center of my front axle measures 6.5 inches from the floor of my garage to the bottom of it with the dual flex. My suspension is stock with the exception of posies all the way around. I am running 235x60x15 front tires also. 275x60's on the rear. I have a Ford Racing 306 with aluminum heads and a AOD transmission which is lighter than the original flathead v8 and 4 speed I pulled out. I don't know how yours will sit, but i like the look and the ride, ie still a truck but softer.

My rears are just basically stock replacements from Posies, my fronts were also stock springs from Posies . After the motor/trans swap, new paint etc. I swtiched my wheels and the front springs to the dual flex superslides from Posies. If you look in my Album you will see pictures with the smoothie wheels which all had the "stock" type springs from Posies. The pictures with the American Racing wheels (profile) are with the new front dual flex springs, ie 2 leafs. After the motor/trans swap it just seemed to ride bouncy due to the lower weight so I needed something softer and they also helped the stance.
