how you doing the lowering?
In the past Ive lowered the springs flat and then used refillable gas shocks.
Works a treat down low and when using a lil luggage or passengers.
The extra air raises the rear to stop the bottoming out.

Bump stop chop, blocks in the back + spring swap.

Making up a diff at the moment with taller spring mounts/seats/rests. I f-in hate blocks, they're pretty dodgy.

Tail-shaft needs shortening too, which sucks, I thought I got away with it, but I can here it bumping when there's a lot of load on the drive train. Might as well finish the tail-shaft hoop too.

ohh, with this new lathe chris we can shorten that tailshalft for you if you want, then you just gotta get it balanced :).
i prefer the rims with hubcaps personally, makes it a granny spec suuuper sleeper ;D. the boys in blue love it.

I thought you had flipped your rear springs chris...you put blocks in as well?
