Default Upper Control Arm and Spindle

Has anyone used a DJM upper control arm with Mcgaughy's 2" spindles and 3" coils. I am trying to go lower and be able to align so I am wondering if the DJM UCA will work.

I know the djm upper is made to give you more adjustability, but haven't heard of anyone using them other than with a 4" or 5" lower arm.

To my knowledge, the lower arms retain stock ride as of using drop coils where the ride gets a little stiffer. As far as alignment, the LCA's are no different than going with coils. The upper are for more adjustability. If they work with my spindles I should be fine by cutting a little off the coils and still be able to align, I want a 6" drop in front and close the gap.
