what are the advantages of paying the extra $150-$200 to get your leafs reset as opposed to lowering blocks

How low do you want to go?

Personally I would not use anything more than a 1.5 inch lowering block.

I have got a 1.5 inch lowering block and the springs reset 2" lower as well. If I get a defect notive I only have to remove the blocks to achieve legal ride height.

i worked out it needs to go about 12cm's lower however much that is in inches. thats a pretty good idea tho i think i might do the same

12cms = 120mm which is close enough to 4-3/4 inches [4.8" actually]

4 3/4 " sounds like an aweful lot haha

that's because it is an awful lot!

if you want to go that low, it really doesn't matter how you do it - the result will be a shocking ride, terrible handling, and illegal. if that's what you're after, go for it.

where can you get a lowering block? and how much?

It's easier enough to just buy some boxing and cap the ends (if you know how to weld).

The most expensive part is getting extended U-bolts made up (high tension steel and threading etc.)

Once you've done all that, your away.

I think the easiest and safe is just buy lowered springs

definitely springs
