    im a first gen, I am not using them but I will be in a few months, all they will do is help flatten your cv angles reducing your risk of a boot tear

    I have a drop kit and I am @ about 2.5. I don't see why you would not want to drop for $29.

    I am using a diff drop at 2.75" of lift. The flatter the cv's are, the stronger they are. You'll get more mileage out of them too. Cheap insurance if you ask me.
