If there is a 0.5" change on the shock body, that results in a .75" change at the wheel. Add another small amount of change because you lose a little bit of spring pre-load by lowering the perch.
Measured drop of the body was just over 0.5". Definitely not .75" or 1". I had to measure because I had Swift Spec-R prior which was causing me to scrap on my driveway, so I had to go back to stock. Later, I went to Koni Yellows on the lower perch and measured the drop to be sure it wasn't going to be too extreme.

revival!

im on koni yellows, upper perch and cr springs all around, and my left rear will not gain any more negative camber. it adjusts to spec on toe fine, but camber neg camber will not go any more negative past .6-.7 degrees. the tech says that the adjuster works fine. and the bushings all appear to be fine. either my subframe is out of alignment, bent or something else is bent or damaged. any one have some further input?

how hard is it to realign the subframe? i can get my alignment shop to do it. billman any comments?

Sounds like a bent knuckle. See if the ball joint housing is contacting the backing plate.
