just as the title says i need more lift if possible i'm BD'ed about 2 1/4, running drop spindles, contitech bags, and 18's. it lays just fine bag is fully compressed and un-notched control arm hitting frame at full drop. i threw stock spindles and notched arm's on lifted great but it was about 1 1/4 inch from laying out the strut rod hit the tie rod. i will post pics also. any suggestions or pics would be great. thanks in advance.

if your using the aim spindles when u lift up the control hits the spindles, if u un-flip the upper ball joint it should still lay and when it lifts it'll clear the aim spindle, thats what happend on mine, also shave the top of the spindle where the control arm hits but not to much, that should solve your problem

get a bag with more lift maybe? Slams might get you more?

check and make sure the control arm isn't hitting the aim spindle, like i said un flip the upper ball joints if they are flipped, aim spindle work without fliping the joints, i'm sure thats your poroblem, it happened to me, and a few other people on this site, there was a forum on here aboot the same problem but i can't find it, i looks like u might be able to rework your mounts abit, to get more lift also. slams will also give u about 1 1/2" more lift

That looks like plenty of lift. Just be glad you dont need 10 inches of lift to turn whatsoever. Lol.

I would put some slam in that bitch and your good to go. You clean the tire now. Its not like your going to drive it locked up that bitch is going to be nutted when your driving right? Lol

id say if nothing is hitting then just get some slam bags.
