best way to get a better stance

I had a 68 dart that someone had added 3 leafs and longer shackles in the rear and jacked the torsion bars all the way up in order to clear 15x8s in the rear. Handled like dog s41t. I dropped it back down with 15x7s rear and added front and rear sway bars for a much better handling car. Now a buddy of mine owns the car and he slammed it down even lower.
