Set the rear low so you hit and get hit on the body not the frame.

easy way to chain the humps and pull the rear down. take a bolt and drill it threw the top of the hump. run the bolt threw one end of the chain wrap it around the axel and put the other end back threw the bolt. if u can weld the bolt inplace. do this w/ either a few friends on the bumper or tailgate or something else to push the rear down so its tight.

You can also SLOWLY heat the rear leaf eyelets and let the weight of the car bend the leaf down till it touches the frame. Dont get the leaf too hot though.

There is no "set" bumper height for the rear I don't think. All you need is to make sure your rear bumper is under any and all other car's bumpers.

have the rear the same height as the front or a little lower.

well setting this car level is not an option. i cant afford to buy a new set of leaf spring to meet the mm rules, so the car is going to look alittle funny.
