I need 1 more inch....
...lower on my 97 4D Tahoe.
About a year ago I did a 2/2 lowering kit using springs on the front and shackles on the rear. It dropped it 2" as advertised. I would like to get one more inch lower in the rear. Besides bags on concrete in the back, whats the best way to get a 3" drop on the rear of my Ho? I have not been able to find a 3" drop shackle. Thought about removing the overload leaf from the spring pack. Not sure what kinda fall out that may bring. Any advise fellas?

Re: I need 1 more inch....
Thats the answer right there! You might need to move to the higher shackle bolt for the 3" because the 2 shackle and the 2" drop on the hanger will net 4", but that is the way to do it!

Re: I need 1 more inch....
Are you referring to the "yes" comment or the "I need 1 more inch" title?
