adjusting ride height
 
this summer I'm gonna put a 12 bolt rear end out of a 72 camaro in my truck. I was going to flip the axle, that should lower it about 5 in. but that's a little lower than I want to go is there anyhing I could do to lower it about 3 to 4 inches with still using my leaf springs? the truck is a 3/4 ton with a dana-60 with the stock leafs and shackles.

have your springs re-arched.

you will need to take/send them to a spring shop and tell them how much you need them re-arched to ... it's not something you can do at home ... at least not by any means that I know of
