EDIT: Hey Phantom, could you measure from the bottom of the front eye of the leafspring to the bottom of that bracket in the front? It looks like about 3 or 4 inches, but it would help some of us lowered guys figure out if we could run these without scraping them. Thanks.

After looking at lots and lots of pictures, I think I'm going to buy some Caltracs. They will give me the most amount of clearance up by the front mount. The Assassin bars look like they'll hang too low. My issue is that when I pull into my parents driveway (not often, but I use that as a gauge for clearance) I scrape my frame every time. I'd hate to have the Assassin bars hang get scraped as well, and it looks like the Caltracs will be tucked up more.

Wonder if these Assassin bars just simply create more leverage on the leafs than the cal tracs due to the lower mounting positions?

Does anyone have any measurements on this? My truck is 4/6 an im willing to go 3/5 just to run these if my truck has traction issues next year.
I run a factory 275/55/20 so its not like im on a rubber band but i will be running a 28-29" front runner with 28" DRs at the track. The more level my truck is the happier ill be
