I'm making combo spindles, both neutral and 3" drop. And remember +4" arms are for coil over and air shocks only.

Using a stock beam with longer arms won't work. Tie rod clearance.

Longer front arms equals longer front shocks, and wider tie rods unless you get RBD's 2" longer by stock width from Southern Buggies.
