How much drop is on your Blazer? Did you use drop spindles and drop springs up front? What did you use to drop the back and how much? I want to drop my 80 2wd Blazer. Thank's B.B.

I have never lowered a leaf spring truck. I have never look at a axle flip kit. How does it work? I know the axle is now mounted out side the springs , and you relocate it under the springs. But how do the spring perches work now that they are on top of the axle? Thanks B.B. PS I like the front end height on your Blazer.
