i think you guys might have typed how to lower a datsun 1200 ute before but im still new to it all.
recently bought a A15 datto and love it!!
jus want to lower the ute and i have heard about those blocks, i looked and noticed i have them between the axle and leaf. do i remove them! in order to lower or do i leave in there but jus readjust the spring???
along with wat sort of springs am i after for the front with standard 14 " rimz

cheers fellas! matt

how low is it now ?? If you have the blocks in there it's already lowered , the only way to get lower is to get the rear springs reset which is what I have in my sedan and the rear wheels sit just under the guard ... I want to put 2" blocks in there too but I don't think it'll like speed bumps

Get them reset as well as leave the blocks in there. Utes need this as the tend to look high still just with the leaves rest. Do both and it will sit nice and low.

Autokat good to see your back. Any pictures of the new sedan?

The blocks in there now(in betwwen the sping and the axle) have lowered your car already. If you take them out it will go back to original ride height. You can get the springs reset for around $110.
