Yes, both trucks still have engines and tranny's in them. Both small blocks, one is a 350 and not sure what the other is?

The blue truck has 33's and the red truck has 31's. Which is why I'm puzzled. The red truck has tires that reduce height about 1" plus the springs have been changed out.
The rims/tires on the blue truck were on the red truck to begin with. When those rims/tires were on the red truck I had a different set of 33's on the blue truck and the red trucks hood was noticable higher (wish I would have taken a picture!?!).
My thoughts now are that the springs that came off the red truck and are on the blue truck now are shot.
This weekend I am going to pull the front springs that are on the red truck and put them back on the blue truck but put the helper spring on with it. Hopefully this brings it up level?
