   If the front is 60mm i want to drop it 60 or 70 at the back to make it level?

   70 if youve not got a sub, might wanna go 60 if youve got a sub and a wooden base mount as it lowers the rear end a fair bit

   Mines 60mm at the front and 45mm at the back. Don't make the back lower than the front. Saxo's are supposed to be higher at the back than the front

    Going that low is going to make it feel like crap. Makes it look like the suspension is shot as well imo.
