Thanks all of you for the input. From what you all are saying, the hangar is beefier, lets you use a longer spring, and lowers the front mounting position.
Begs some more questions:
Im assuming for a given spring height(lift)...the hangar will give it more lift than than the stock mount...like ramrod said...allowing use of a flatter spring for the same amount of lift. How much does it lower the front mount?
Also, how much longer of spring does the hangar allow you to use? Just from looking at it it doesnt look like much.
The reason im curious about all this is that im gonna order some springs from a custom spring maker....either Alcan or Deaver. With the hangar changing some key dimensions it sounds like it wont be as simple as ordering a stock length, 4" spring for example.
So the question is...what do I deduct on lift height to compensate for the hangar, and how much longer spring(over stock length) are we talking about?
Hope this all makes sense....
Thanks again everyone....
