I think he means his front wheels have no or little more travel, and he's looking for info on kits or methods to drop the front axle …..

I recall seeing some lift kits that include a new crossmember that lowers LCA inner pivots as well as axle … not something I've looked at much … LOL

=leftYes, that's what I'm looking for. to realign the gimbals with a correct angle.
I'll take a picture tonight.

It's not just a couple of crossmembers for the lower control arms. There's quite a bit more.

Sounds like a 3" level kit. Should probably just do a real lift kit like posted above
