Our frame/hanger had an extra set of holes that allowed me to move the hanger so that it did not raise the truck. It is actually lower by 1/8" like Korbin mentioned. In the pictures, the frame is upside down...
very interesting! never thought about that. im anxious to see this on the ground. ive got mine as low as i can get it with leafsprings adding a 2 x 3 in block. i drove it at all speeds and have no driveline vibration and my pinion is great. i though about raising the front hangers but never thought about flipping them in the rear to make it handle. let me know if you see a big difference!
