best struts for a 3" drop?
I need some opinions. I just put in megan racing springs. Struts are ebay sensa struts about year old. What should I look for that will handle that kind of drop?
As always all input is appreciated.

Coilovers. Lol. No spring/strut combo will handle or ride worth a flip at a 3" drop. I honestly thought the biggest drop on springs was 2.25", and even that is pushing on ride quality.

3 inch drop = no suspension travel. Can't be done on a spring and strut set up.
Your only option is a coil over set up.
