Rear Drop? Which is better, ALL Spring? or Spring and Blocks?
Going with a 6 inch drop on Halen's truck, and in the past I've just used a 6 inch spring. Lately, I've seen a few guys running a 4 inch spring and a 2 inch block. Can anybody tell me the main purpose for this? Other than 6 inch springs are a little harder to find. Is the ride better with the blocks?
thanks

Thats a really good question. I would ask this guy. I know they have put a lot in to engineer their suspension.

The shorter the spring, the harsher the ride.
