Re: leveling stance
Knock the springs apart and 'de'arch them. you can leave the main leaf in the truck, (the top leaf with the eyes in it) cut the center bolt, and hammer out the other leaves on an anvel or two pieces of rail, set them back in place, drop the truck and see if you dearched them enouph, if not, repeat. when you get it where you want it put in a new center bolt and u-bolts and you're good. Hope this helps....

Re: leveling stance
Or you could call Early Classic Enterprises and order a pair of their 2 inch drop shackles. They bolt on in just a few minutes with basic tools.
