that's true but to get a 4" drop it requires that you start messing with the
hangars/shackles. I only have my rear dropped 2 1/2" at the moment using a
front hangar and a 1" block. Whilt this setup is not a radical drop by any
streatch it is 4 degrees off and without shims it would tear up rears.
Does anyone else have just front hangars? I'm finding I'm no longer getting
any wheel hop and I'm getting pretty good launches out of it. just curious
if this was a characteristic of the setup of the new tires I got last month
