How much lift do you have? 2" would probably put your fan into your radiator.

Ok then that kinda changes my mind about doing that kind of drop... I just put alca on the front to get my caster and stuff to where it should be.. and after I moved my front axel forward I got a drive line vibe.. any ideas on what I should do to stop that vibe? On my rear drive line its really close to the end of the spline I don't have much money right now but what can I do if I want to go from a 3" to a 4.5" lift?
