How about what is it off of and what are you trying to accomplish?

if it is for the pathfinder, why not put in 2 wheel drive truck suspension? Drop spindles and control arms, that will get it plenty low and you wont be experimenting with a key suspension component!!!

the truck is unibody and uses a macstrut, so no other suspension (arms or spindles)would even come close to working, and it has been converted to 2wd.

right now my tierods angle is maxed out.
so my plan is to flip the tie rods to the bottom of the mount by rheeming the hole opposite taper and using larger shaft tie rods.
then to keep my geometry correct i have to flip and rheem the lower ball joint aswell (i will use hardbody ball joints, cause they are larger shaft, and meant to be mounted facing up). but because of the angle of the mount it needs to be bent so it can even go in.
and there is no upper control arm just the strut.

oh no! i just realized i only have 1 post left after this one!!!!!!
