Nothing, unless you raise or lower the housing in the car at the same time.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Makes them higher off the ground ?


It doesnt do anything to the pinion angle but it does tilt the whole car more.. puts more weight on the front

I need to make a set of these. I have a bunch of 2x4 cut offs I can use up. I might attach plywood around the outside to eliminate any chance of the wobleeze. Is that a word? wave
