If you extractors hang any lower than these I suggest getting your engine mounts checked.

Remember a 3.0 has a shorter deck height than a 3.5 so the extractors hang a fair bit lower on a 3l. I couldn't tell you the exact difference though... Maybe 1/2 and inch?

Oh... lol
They are a bit awkward to see how low they hang in those pics. Do you have any showing the actual ground clearance front on?

No but if you take into account the height they are compared to the crossmember then you should get a reasonable idea. basically the lowest part of the flange on the front extractor is the same height as the crossmember at it's lowest point.
