A company called bell tech has lowering blocks as a kit or any parts store should have, or flip your the little spring to drop it also
What's this now? We can turn the smallest [bottom] leaf upside down to lower the car some? Has anyone ever done this? How much did it drop? How about removing that small leaf?

Moving to Off-Topic section:
* This is not Datsun-1200 related
* Is not a Project car, it is a specific how-to

I removed the short spring on my B210 from the bottom of the stack and it dropped the rear of the car perfectly for me at 2". That. along with cutting 1 1/4 coil from the fronts and I've saved some weight too. Nice mod! :)

the only problem with taking one of the springs out is that you could never use the tray to load anything, a 620 ute doesnt have coil springs on the front or rear, full torsoin bar setting on the front and pretty much just leaf springs on the rear. it is always better to just get lowering blocks so you can still load up the rear if you ever needed to use the ute for a ute
