Does this look right????


 Under my Bel Air today, I was gonna take the Shock extensions out because I think the car sits too high.  Do those spacers (don't know the name)  look right?

The spring mounts have the spacers in them which are raising the car. The shock extenders are put in because when the springs were spaced higher up, the shocks were too short.

So if I understand your question right, if you want to lower the car, take those pipes out from under the bottom of the springs and remove the extenders from the top of the shocks.

Shock extenders won't change the actual ride height of a car unless they are used on air shocks.

Now, with all that said, did I understand your question and answer it correctly???!!!
