Anyone had an issue with your emergency brake cable hanging loose after doing a drop? Fix?

remember your rear end shifted forward therefor making the ebrake cable loose, got to get the spohn upper and lower control arms. I have to get the arms as well...

This is UNBROKEN's truck on the Sphon website :waytogo:

It's still off a hair even with the bracket. I'm **** about symmetry....that last 3/16" or so was worth the cost of the adjustable bar.

how much? don't see it on their site

If you buy any of their drop kits it will come with the kit. If you order a kit and its not in there or if you ordered one in the past, you can email them your receipt and they will send you one. Mine was off a little and we had to fab it to make it work.

I was just curious as to how much they were selling them for. I have the Spohn adjustable Panhard Bar, very happy with the results.

So you guys with this 3"/5" drop.....what are your measurements now form ground to center of wheel arch?

Stock:
36" front / 38 1/4" rear
(on my stock '09 quad cab)

If you go 3"/5" it should come down to 33" front / 33 1/4" rear (in theory anyways)....
I'm also running stock size tires as well and will be for a lil while until I can buy some 22s

Cut (with a wheel)

.5 coil in the front and 1.5 coil in the back...looks great, bottoms out sometimes.
