has anyone done one? my 78 came with a brand new composite monoleaf for the rear (in the box in the cargo area) i'm wondering if it's worth my time to the conversion on the front? this is going to be my daily driver, every day except when having to go to run for motorcycle parts or out to the Guitar Center or one of my once in a while gigs.

I really like the idea of having a mono-leaf on the front, so I can adjust the ride height all day long, but the only thing that I'm not sure about is the ground clearance, this thing will be hanging about 1-1.5 in. below the crossmember, this is not so good for a daily driven car, maybe someone who got it in his car already could shed some light on this matter.

Ground clearance is not an issue. I have run one for a few years now and other parts are lower than the spring. I have never bumped the spring or brackets on the front mono leaf. Yes you can adjust the ride height and the spring rate in a matter of minutes. I also run the tubular control arms upper and lower on mine.

Same here, no issues with ground clearance at all.

so, it sounds like a win/win situation for my 78. once i get it back into safe drivable condition i'll start doing the mods, but safe and drivable come first.

The kit might be a bit cheaper directly from the manufacturer; Vette Brake and Products.
