Advice needed about lowering zo6
Today I attempted to lower the car. I worked on the front first, I turned the 10mm bolt counter clockwise, I left 1/4 inch in bushing space. The car did not lower, whats the problem? The rear went fine.

Go for about a 50 mile drive, it should drop down by the time you get home. :)
(Incidentally, by time I mean that it might not go down to it's final resting height for at LEAST a week. The more you drive it, though, the more your help the process.)

You may also want to get the alignment done - most cars can use a tweak or two - make sure you advise the alignment shop about what you have done and the type of driving you intend to do.

I lowered mine a year ago......no alignment .....no unusual tire wear.
