thanks guys, great advice and I will definately look into it. my only concern is that by lowering the front mounting point of the control arms, i will essentially straighten them out, since they are angled slightly upward now, and cause my rear axle to be shifted to the rear more then it already is. I will have to find a solution to this, but that shouldnt be to bad. Do you guys think building new trailing arms from 2x3 steel that they use for chassis work is a possible solution?
