Re: lowering blocks
Lowering blocks would not work in your application as the rear sits below the spring pack. The rear end would have to be flipped above the spring pack 1st to use blocks for further drop.

Re: lowering blocks
I lowered mine with 3in blocks and i am having a problem with the pinon angle and putting the u-joins in a bind,which is causing a real bad bouncing feel below 30 mph.i found some lowering blocks at speedway motors that are made for 60-72 trucks.i am putting 2 in blocke which should correct the pinon angle and i hope it correct the bounce also.
