    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knows a percentage of vehicle weight that the front end carries. The car is a '73 GS with a lot of weight shaved off the front. The front sits about 3" higher than it is supposed to with the stock springs. It is now only 4050 pounds with the driver. I'm thinking that 75% of the vehicle weight is up front. Does anyone have any experience with this? I really want to put coil-overs up front and need this info for spring selection. I'm sure I can go and weigh my front end at the quarry but it will be several weeks before I'll be able to do this. Just wanted to get a head start.
    Thanks
    Steve
