This is why. in general, every spindle kit has more ground clearence under the diff than the "full drop kits". This is also why the CV are steeper and also why you shouldnt crank past 6" on a spindle kit. Also you will not be able to run your stock wheels, if you wanted to, with a knuckle kit like fabtech or RCD. Go with Rancho, BDS, or Cepek full drop kit.
Hmm...you've got me slightly confused here (it might be the Miller light as well). But the '98 kit I've got is an IFS, and the issue I have is with the rear CV joint angle out of the transmission (by CV I actually mean a non-stock "constant velocity" or "double cardan" Spicer joint I have that burns through centering kits because of this high angle.) I was curious if the DC or any other kits you speak of are actually capable of reducing this transmission to rear diff angle.

Nope, not that i know of...You're the first one i've ever heard of having this problem, can't you get a trans drop kit to correct the angle? Good luck.
