Dropped axle question ??

Do these companies that drop axles or offer new 'dropped front axles' also offer tie-rod/drag link relocater kits?? Or do you just have to run them at an angle upward?? It seems like that would cause some eratic steering etc or possibly even interfere with the frame/oil pan etc.

How has anyone with a dropped axle handled this??
Thanks

I think that companies that have the dropped axles, also sell the tie-rod relocating peices. They should. I bought mine from bobsf100.
