Okay I know there are numerous topics on leaf springs and I looked through the
Old forms but still would like some input. I have a ½ ton 49 short-bed.. I haveA TCI mustang front with drop spindles. I now need my back end lowered about 2 ½ inches. The leaf springs are under the axial and have 2 1/4 inch lowering block on one side and 1 3/4 on other side?? And it sits level??
I want a softer ride so I want to remove the bottom three springs ( has 8 now) By removing the three springs will this lower my truck any or is this Going to raise it?? I know that I can make new shackles on the back and move the spring about 1” Closer to the frame which should lower it.
I could add more lowering blocks but how much is to much. The U bolts for the lowering block is already close to the ground.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Marcus
