Thanks carjunkie....

I was hoping someone else had a similar setup & could advise on how the King springs sit with the extra weight of the CA18.

It's a bit of a short cut, but was hoping to use this advice in order to get the springs sorted now as opposed to getting everything assembled & then having to pull the front end apart again.....

Interesting comments about the lowering blocks...... I had planned to use a tramp rod setup to keep the rear end under control......

Yes, reset leaves are the "proper" way to lower the rear however, I believe I'll still be stuck with axle tramp even after spending the extra $$$ - Hence the lowering blocks & tramp rod setup.

C'mon - There must be someone else out there running a CA18 & 14's
