Hello all. Getting ready to cut standoffs for the Firestone 9294 airbags. Looking at the spec sheet and specs of what others have posted, I'm trying to figure out why the airbag plates shouldn't be parallel at normal ride height: ~13.5" from suspension airbag mount point to point. Is it due to some weird angle possible during extreme suspension movements? It would make sense to me that somebody had something considered, I just haven't read about why if that's the case. Can somebody knowledgeable about that chime in? Thank you in advance.
