I had one of these and they do hang very low  I ended up changing my for a 4-2-1 style one which gives a lot more clearance all round

Remove the ARB and see if you like the handling.
As shaun said, a 4-2-1 is win, your 4-1 will produce power/torque right up the rev range which sucks.
Not really much you can do about it though.
