    Thanks for this thread guys, it gave me the courage to step notch mine this weekend. I think they turned out pretty good.

    Just curious,
    Is there a clearance issue that requires the need to convert a straight A-Arm to a "J" shaped A-Arm?
    The suspension A-Arms is a straight line between the inner and outer pivot points [regardless of the shape in between them]
    If lowering was the only motive, you could achieve the same results by "Frenching"[recessing] the spring buckets.
    [And it would be a lot safer]
