^ wow those have really come down from last time I was looking at them.
I just looked at pics of the current Spohn's and they also use straight tubing and a similar hanging basket thing for the mount.
The shock mount on my stock lower control arms is about an inch lower now than it used to be and it drops further every time I race it. The shop that put them in mounted them with the t-bar below the LCA instead of above and the bolts are pulling the shock mounts down. Mounting them above the LCA may have helped a bit but I think the same thing would have happened eventually. The shock mount just isn't strong enough.
