I know I've seen it on here but search didn't give any info. I'm going to install spreader bar on my 68 coupe. What kind of measurements do I want to achieve after install? What is the starting measurement to know if I'm doing any good? Thanks, Tom

Thanks jb78L-82, I just didn't read far enough. It got to people arguing about frame sag or not and figured they got off subject. Thanks again. Ordering now!
