I dont think you can re-set the leafs that much. They can only go so far before being flat and a horrible ride. You are best getting them re-set to a reasonable hieght then running a small legal lowering block like 1inch or 1.5inch.

I am looking at options for my ute, because the 3.5inch block is abit noticable

They reverse the eyes on the longest leaf, this lowers the car a lot more.

Dat5_al where are you getting yours done? Industrial springs?
