    At stock ride height with full weight on the suspension is the axle supposed to be straight from the trans out to the knuckle or at a slight downward angle? I need to install spacers but need to know the correct angle so i know to install a full or half kit with the spacers.

    Added vinnie's spacers full set and that brought my suspension back to stock angle. The car feels so much better.
