Well it looks to me like the claims by the vendors that the mono-leaf will reduce the suspension height by 3 inches in the front is probably not accurate. And then there is the issue of bump steer unless the mono leaf has a more forward position for connecting the axle.

I checked on this mono-leaf part through a vendor website and there is no mention of bump steer or re-positioning the axle to accommodate the angle of the pitman arm.

I also called one one of our vendors to see if they had photos of the before and after shots of the mono-leaf and they didn't. So at this point I don't see the mono-leaf as a solution to bring the chassis fender opening down to the top of the tire in the front.
