Default 6" and above lift using CAD brackets,, PICS WANTED

Hey guys,,

I'm hoping at least a few here are doing what I want to do.

I am gonna run a 6.5" coil with stock length arms on a Control Arm Drop bracket(s).

DO NOT post and tell me I need to do this and that. I have a very good idea of what I am in for and I have my reasons for wanting to do mine this way.
All I want to see is pics of this setup

No offense meant and I hope none is taken
THAANKS GUYS (n gals)

i know you said you are keeping stock arms and all.... and you dont want to hear that and that. but im going to point his out. can you get away with 6.5 inchs with control arm drops and stock control arms? the answer is yes but youre axle will be pulled back.

that is all im going to say.

I need roughly a 17" LCA length (eye to eye) for my lift im getting ready to do. Without dropping the CAs.
I am using non stock CAs. Stock length tho coz the stock ones are wimpy.
UNLESS
The 17" length applies to the lift WITH the brackets. But the package is for "stock" CAs. (from what I have read)
Might spring for an adjustable set to make sure pinion angles are right without shimming.
