DOES ANY ONE USE DJM 3" DROP CONTROL ARMS ON THIER RIDES. I HAVE DJM 3" DROP COILS AND I HAVE NEVER LIKED THE THE WAY THE FRONT END RIDES OVER BUMPS AND CRACKS, ITS ALMOST LIKE HAVING CINDER BLOCKS FOR SPRINGS. IT CORNERS GREAT IF THE ROADS WERE SMOOTH BUT UNFORTUNETLY THIER NOT.

I have the 3 inch control arms. they make 2 also. i've heard you run into turning radius problems with either. You get used to it though, not that big of a deal

so what are you actually hitting? the spindle to the control arm. what size and back spacing are your rims. I ride on 16x8 255/50/16 i dont remember the back spacing but its not much, close to 4"

My wheels are 18 * 8.5, not sure of the backspacing. They dont rub at all except if go over a dip when I'm going fast, or when I'm going fast on an on ramp to the highway. The control arms just cut out turning radius, I dont think they are hitting anything. If you go to previous posts, there's something you can do to get some of your turning radius back.
