Frame Height
Hi guys finally putting all the pieces together after 4 years. Body is primed going off rotisserie back on frame in next few days for final fits before paint. Something has bothered me for quite a while. I have installed a 4" lift kit using lifted springs front and back. Not sure if this is normal but the back of the frame on the flat spot to the flat spot on front of frame it is 2" higher in the back? No body or drivetrain in it, diffs are dead level. Diffs are out of a newer blazer but I don't think that should matter? Is this normal? not a huge deal but always bugged me. It does have a wedge between springs and diff to tilt rear end up a bit ( but less then an inch). Also had to lower the tranny mount to lower the angle on the driveshaft. steep and short but it will work. (700r4). IT does drop in the back a bit with body on but not to level. Haven't tried it with top on for a bit. Just wondering if it being high in the back is an issue or normal. Double checked part numbers on lifted springs and all good.I also have a 1" body lift not sure if i should try and level body with lift blocks in different locations or just let it sit high in back?
