Seems to me the cheapest/best way to go is to buy fixed length LCAs and an adjustable UCA. By only adjusting the center, you don’t have to worry about keeping the axle perpendicular to the car. However, when you lower the car and use stock length LCAs you push the axle back and the pinion angle increases (nose goes down). Right? When using an adjustable UCA, you may push the axle back more to correct the pinion angle. Is there some point where you risk pushing the drive shaft out enough to risk spline damage using this method? Or am I all messed up?
