I'm planning to weld up my front hanger sometime soon. Overall goal of my SAS is to keep it relatively low. Anyone notch the frame to incorporate the hanger? I know this is feasible on older toys, just curious if anyone did it on a Taco Frame.
Any pros/cons?

wouldnt that mean you would need to run a shorter spring so you are not tearing into your firewell/fenderwell?

I talked to Brian at FROR briefly about moving up the spring hanger higher up...he said this was a bad idea due to the fact that you want to keep your springs fairly flat i.e. spring hangers and shackle hangers at same height. This is hard to do with the tacos do to mounting the shackle hanger under the frame. I am not sure of any adverse effects of doing it this way other than your tire will stuff back towards your firewall a bit more
