I'm Awesome
First of all, with a 3" spring, youre starting to get in a bad area. First of all, your shock is becoming ineffective-thats fixable. Youre also running out of suspension travel and are most likely tagging your bump stop a lot. This will eventually bend and break stuff. Third, your alignment is getting close to being impossible to bring back into spec. Theres a reason you have never seen a magazine use a 3" spring in one of their builds. Another thing youre going to run into is once go through all the acrobatics and muck things into your 3/5 drop, youre going to want a 4/6-it has happened to most of us. Your best bet is to just bite the bullet and start collecting parts for a 4/6 and save yourself time and money (and grief). Get a set of (non-BellTech) spindles or lower drop arms. Find someone who will sell you the axle cradle for a flip kit. Make your notch, get some shocks and u-bolts and do it right the first time.
