1/2"??? lol.. the other guy says even or below the front mount.. in my case its gonna have to be more like 4 or 5 inches to be even or even close to level.. yeah thats right i did say inches.. just a stock suspension with intrax springs.. supposedly a 2" drop..

Re: optimal relocation?
It will actually depend on what you want to use the car for. If it's more for taking turns, than it needs to be level, or the front slightly lower than the rear. If ot's strait line traction you're looking for, then you want the rear slightly lower than the front.
I would recommend some rod-ened lower control arms to get rid of the hop. You can get away with poly bushings there if it's for drag purposes.
