$1300 for Kooks LT's plus cats hang below the frame rails. $475 Ceramic coated JBA shorties no cats hanging below the frame rails and yes thier is a definite difference in performance. I just couldnt justify the cost when I dont see the track but very rarley.

Maybe a half inch if you're lucky. Not enough to worry about unless you lower it to the extreme like some sort of mexican low rider or go rock climbing with it (like a jeep).

Why does it have to be a mexican! I resent that. Well anways, I've heard from a lot of people that the good set ups (such as Kooks or ARH) will not sit below the frame.

I watched a Kooks install vid which showed the cats were clearly below the frame rails even if it was only 1/2". It all depends on the setup I guess but I have heard others with LT's(even kooks and arh) that have had issue's even w/o cats.
