im bagged in the front and lay out with 2inch drop spindles, but i get HORRIBLE lift, it sucks. (re6's) i want to take my drop spindles out and put the stock ones back in, but i still want to lay in the front. im a lil confused with the whole notching the lower arms thing, ive searched around and got a few diff answers..so any pics/info would be great becuz i want to lay on my stock spindles .

oh yea, my rim size is 17 nd my tires are 40 series.


thanks.

Is this what you mean? The only reason I notched mine were to lay the bag at a different angle and move it into the frame for more lift. As seen I also notched the frame for the bag to sit inside of when laid out. Josh on here also did the same mod (but his looks better) and he lays out on a hella big wheel.

is your bag completely collapsed when laid out? maybe it's how far away the bags are from the frame. My final wheel and tire will be the same as yours, but I restrained mine from lifting all the way cause 3" wheel gap with a 2" body drop was all the more I would want.

no thats the thing, i think i have to redo my mounts, becuz my bag isnt fully collapsed..

soo any tips/ideas?

1. bag close to frame as possible without rubbing ?



and how high should i jack my tire up to see where to put the bag? that just confuses me
