Re: How low can you go?
I've heard they "recommend" a notch when using a 4/6 or lower, but I know a lot of people that have a 4/6 on their truck/blazer without any problems. I have yet to drop my truck, but I'm in the planning stages of using a 4/6 drop without a notch. You might also check with the Suspension forum as well, you'll probably get a whole other dimension of suspension info, more in depth.

Re: How low can you go?
Yeah, pretty much anything more than 4" out back and you'll need to start thinking about a notch. As mentioned above, I too have seen some a little lower without it, but you won't have much room left for travel, so it will need to have pretty firm springs in it if you are trying to go lower w/o the notch.
Good luck!
