Interesting question, is the AAR the same?
Careful, your character's showing!

I believe the front is set to the same spec as any other Challenger. The factory ride height measurement was the difference between two points. Point "A" is the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the torsion bar adjusting blade. Point "B" is the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the LBJ. A minus B = the ride height given in the FSM.
As for the rear, the rear springs were different on the T/A and AAR. The springs gave them an extra 1" of ride height because of the side exit exhaust tips. What are A and B supposed to be? Is there a diagram/picture anywhere online to reference?

Thanks for the pics. That last pic must be from later on maybe mid 70s? just looking at the engines listed so I wonder if earlier years may have been different. I'm guessing ultimately the height should be set to my preference, but would there be anything out there T/A or AAR specific anywhere? Maybe an excerpt from a factory assembly manual?

Is the difference between A and B for a 1970 Challenger T/A 1"?

Cuda 108.....Challenger 110 Exactly, so I wonder how many FSM were published that had the numbers transposed.
