Hey guys, so i installed 2" drop spindles and 1-3" Drop keys. At first i only did the spindles and left the stock keys in, then decided i might as well install the keys since i have them. Installed the lowering keys (destroyed the stock ones to get them out) and now she sits super low in the front with the keys basically fully maxed out. Im 31" from the ground to fender with 285/45r22's. The rear is at 33.5" with 4" drop springs and freetravel mod, end links and shock reloactor brackets.

My question is, is there a way to either swap the bars around or from one side to the other to try to get another 1.5" out of this setup? Also the bars are stil stock and have 185k on them so i sure they are worn slightly.

This was with the kit and stock keys before i removed them. With 305/40r22's

Also odd thing is that once i put the keys in i didnt need to use the Tool to get the little threaded block in there. I was able to just slide them both in.

I doubt your bars are the problem, You stacked drop spindles and drop keys together. I would go back with stock keys and adjust to your taste. When I did the drop on my 03, the keys alone were too much drop and I had to go back to stock keys and adjust accordingly, and I didn't even change the spindles.
