ok call me ghetto, but i was thinking since i have helper bags and a flip kit, and want the back lower when it's aired out, couldn't i just put some 1 inch lowering blocks under the axel? because i am too cheap to buy a link setup and too lazy too... lol would that work and be safe??

Do it. Theres nothing wrong with that. I'm not much of a block guy, I'd rather use a shackle, but if your only going an inch, I'd say your okay.

will it matter that i don't have shock extenders?

Yes and no. If your not running any now, one inch wont make much difference, but your gonna need shock extenders no matter what you do. You really ought to pick some up.

One of these bastards on this site is bound to have some sitting around. Seems to me like somebody already asked for some before. Maybe it was you.


ANYBODY GOT ANY SHOCK EXTENDERS LAYING AROUND THAT THEY WANT TO UNLOAD!?!?!


We'll see if that helps.

I can't remember but did I look into getting just the extenders for you? If not djm or belltech may sell them, maybe western chassis too. Let me know
