to the guys who have 2" dropped hangars on their luxes......

just wondering what length springs u running and how far past the original spring hangar did u move the dropped ones to??

i was gonna try to drop hangars without x-over but apparently the ball on j arm needs moving to top for the draglink to work properly (I only just found this out...Thanks Hypo)

Cheers
