Not necessarily. That’s the thing, and one of the reasons I tell people to skip the drop spindles. You can get just as low of a ride height without them if you’re running larger torsion bars. And the suspension geometry is better lowered with the adjusters than it is with drop spindles.
I ran drop spindles on my Challenger for a long time thinking I needed them for the ride height. After learning more about them I found I was able to drop that car just as low without them because of the 1.12” bars I was running.
With an A-body the maximum drop is usually limited by the inner wheel wells. My Duster is at the maximum, at full suspension compression there’s 13” from the spindle to the inner fender. So a 26” tall tire would kiss the inner fender with the suspension fully bottomed.
I’d just sell the drop spindles and buy a set of 1.12” torsion bars. Especially with the Hotchkis shocks, that combo works great for me
