I inherited a good set up of an RE 5" lift in the front. With 1" coil spacers I'm at 6". The PO stayed with the short arm RE kit but added drop brackets, so I get some pretty good flex.
So far this set up has been very good to me. Finally got the tramlining sorted with some more negative caster adjustment. But I'm beginning to wonder if I am missing out by not just biting the bullet and going long arm.
I know the topic of short arm vs. long arm has been beat to death on this and other threads, but I've not seen a direct comparison between those who have specifically gone drop bracket to long arm.
I'm curious to hear form anyone who has specifically gone from drop brackets to long arm: what's your opinion? was it worth it? what did you gain from it? were there any drawbacks? was just a bunch of time and money for no real gain? What are your thoughts.
Feel free to chime in, but make sure to tell us whether you went short/long or drop/long. I already know short/long there is no question.
