lowering front end more than threads will allow?
I have not been able to find a good link on how to lower the front beyond what turning the stock bolts will allow. I have turned the front as far as I can and want it a little lower. I've found plenty of stuff on the rear... Any links on cuttting the front bushings?

Also, Hardbar sells and adjustable replacement bolt for the front lowering bolts and titanium replacements for the rears to get you even lower.

I took the bolt out in the front and I cut a piece of an old motorcycle tire and placed between the leaf spring and a arm.The back I got 5/8's x 7" bolts w/locking nuts at local hardware store,drilled out the washers and bushings so they fit on the 5/8's bolt, the car sits nice now.Wish I had pictures.The ride is not that bad,the back is a little bouncy though,I can live with that 
.The front all I did was take the tire off,put a jackstand underneath the leaf spring,let the car down so it pushes the leafspring up as much as possible and used a pry bar to hold up the leaf spring and unscrewed the bolt out,It was a PITA,but I got it with out taking anything apart.From the ground up to the center of the wheel well I have 27" in rear,The front 26 1/2".
