How do you drop the front differential when the crossmember sits right below it?

longer brackets at the front of the diff, and a shorter bracket at the back. its really simple, and it does the job.

I saw pics of the calmini drop brackets and they look like they drop and rotate it slightly at the same time.

The front Calmini brackets are about 2" longer, the rear drops by about 1/2". Its really more of a rotation but it brings the driveshafts down. When topping up the diff oil you need to lift the front or park on a good slope or you won't get enough oil in.
