Adding 1" drop blocks

[1sickcrewcab]

Hey guys I want to install 1" drop blocks. Im currently using a flip kit and shackles and 2 degree shims. My question is where do I place the block? On top of the shim? or the block needs to be on leaf springs and the shim on top of the block? Thanks

I would keep the shim on the rearend and put the block between the leaf and shim, that way the block stays nice and flat against the leaf.

Thanks draggin95!!! Really need to find level ground cause sometimes my truck looks good and sometimes it looks like its need a little more drop in the back.

Damn thing is so long just measure underbody to ground just ahead of the rear wheel opening and just behind the front wheel opening. (srsly)

Lol. Hell yeah its long. Long and low. I love it. Thanks Richard will give it a try but since the wheel arches are different wouldn't it not match up?

 

[someotherguy]

Naw, talking about the actual rocker panel under the doors. Same all the way across. Just measure at the farthest points before the wheel opening begins.

Oh ok. For some reason I was there thinking you meant the frame. Will do thanks

I know they use to have angled lowering blocks as well. You could always try that if you didn't feel comfortable stacking a shim and block.

Yeah I've used the angled blocks before but that was with like 3" blocks. All the 1" blocks I've seen are all flat. I only need a inch or even a 3/4 block. I've seen them on ebay.
