Andy is right, longer shackles lower the car. My 57 TR3 vintage race car
has about 3" longer shackles and the car sits about 3 inches lower than
stock.

Back around 1972 or so, a friend of mine bought a real beater (but good
runner) of a TR3A. The one thing he REALLY wanted to do was to get some
big old long spring shackles and raise up the rear end like all the '57
Chev's in town. Took a bit of explaining to convince him that, well, it
might NOT work on the TR.... ;-)

*Man: Well, no ... It's not so much of a jet, it's more your, er,
Triumph Herald engine with wings.
