Default lowering the front

I've read the post about lowering the rear. Is lowering the front that easy as turning a nut. Also, when you lower the front do you need to have the front end lined back up. Thks John

Yes and yes. Same for the front. Check out the tech section there's a how to there. Now if you want to go lower (like I did with my Z06) there's bushing cutting involved and longer bolts out back if you want to go really low. Just spinning the bolts will usually suffice on a vert or coupe.
