I know, I know, I am going to get FLAMED for asking this, but things like this are hard to find. You probably already know what the question is from my first sentence ;-) I want to level out my 4x4. I live in the snowbelt, so I bought the 4x4. I race and enjoy the lowered look, so I want to at least even out the backend of my truck to make it even with the front. That would'nt be hard except for the fact the the rear springs are on top of the axle. Any ideas how to use 1" blocks (1" is enough, right?) to lower the rear? Any suggestions? And please no flames, I am sick of the @ssholes who think that droping a 4x4 is blasphemy or something. Get a freaking life and take down the fracking confederate flag.....

LOL, I'm done now, just had to vent. Thanks everyone!

YOu can't use a 1" block on your truck by itself. If you wanna level it out, I suggest lifting the front an inch since making the back just one inch lower is gonna be pretty costly and time consuming. If you do decide to lower the back one inch, you will need to get a 2" drop hanger for the rear of the leaf spring and use a 1" block to lift it back up to make a one inch drop. Lemme know if you need any other ideas! GLN305@satx.rr.com
