Well Steve, 
It looks like you have all the reasons you need to move forward with this 
suspension mod. 
I haven't made this change, but flipping the arms would lower the car and I 
think help avoid bottoming the shock travel too. 
Put a zip tie on the shock shaft and check clearance without the spring in 
place before the final assembly. 
This step was suggested to me by Tony G. and I'm glad that I checked. I spaced 
the lower shock mount to gain a little shock travel as I was very close to end 
of the travel.

Hello All, 
Does anyone have experience with turning their lower A-arms upside down to gain 
a possible advantage in lowering the frame? 
All comments welcome!
