Squareback lowering.

[patmor@utu.fi (Patrick Joel Morton)]

Type III,

As I have understood from a few people (and Greg's TIII Owner's Manual
URL), dropping the front end of a Squareback is pretty easy - at least
compared to a TI.  OK.  Once the splines have been turned on the front axle
of Squareback, what else is needed?  Different shocks, different ball
joints, what?  An alignment?  Is this lowering going to ruin drivability or
handling?  The last thing I want is to bruise my kidneys or rupture my
spleen for the sake of a lower Squareback!

I would like to drop my Squareback only down about 4cm, enough to make it
look a little lower - not into the weeds.  How many turns - if that is the
right term - am I looking at to get this look?

Thanks in advance.
