Hi Jovozx12*
That is the common way for hot rods, because they don't care about actual cornering performance.
I think what Code510* is asking about, is for actual handling performance on tracks, AutoX or curvy roads. Shortening the lower control arms is the one of the worst things you can do for the roll center. It migrates far & erratically during travel with short lower arms. Just the opposite ... longer lower control arms ... is the goal.
*Please post your names. I dislike talking to a handle.
