That hangs low? Unless your pushing your jeep to the limit and beyond I highly doubt you'll ever have issues. Hell sliders could hang that low and zero issues.
Hows it drive?

Im with you. I doubt I'll have a problem with it hanging up, but time will tell I suppose. I just got back from a drive around town, and down the freeway, and it handles great. The real test will be this weekend. Im going out with a friend this weekend to do a little wheeling,to give it a trial run. The only problem I see right now, is that the shocks won't allow the suspension to droop out to its potential. I know that I will be buying longer shocks VERY soon.

And at some point, I will make a 3 or 4-link set up. Theres nothing wrong with a radius arm set up. A LOT of people across the world run them without issue. It actually keeps the pinion angle perfectly straight through out the entire suspension travel, and is more than what most people will ever use. I plan on having a few different kits, even a mid-arm set up. Different kits for different budgets, and wheeling styles. Would I ever use this kit on a purpose built rig.......no, just like I wouldn't use a sledge hammer to drive a finish nail.
