72 ride height setup.
trying to DIY tune the suspension of my 72.
i'm equipped with stock torsion bars, but installed rear SC control arms. FRONT: IIRC stock height is about 210 mm, my fortuitous setting while assembling is 155 mm. too low? Bump steer problems? i did not install a bump steer spacer set. it looks pretty nice. REAR:Stock is 12 mm, my settings L: 17mm, R: 10 MM aside from trying to even things up, what should i shoot for? thanks in advance

Tons of threads on what the euro height measurement is, I would go for level lower front control arms and add the $10 bump steer spacer. I think you will have funny handling 2 inches below stock with out other changes on the front.
While you are at it go ahead and "tri point" rough corner balance it with the equivalent of your weight in the drivers seat. Really makes the cars feel glued down.
