Are your springs sitting on the axle mounts right now or are they on blocks that are sitting the axle mounts?

Get you some 1in" drop blocks, and take a leaf spring out...you can just go with bigger blocks for more drop, but the 1in should be able to fit with the stock u-bolts...any bigger and you may have to buy longer ones.

Ok, o'reillys has th drop blocks in stock, they have 2" and 3" with bolts to go with them, so which should i go with? Want to really close the gap in the rear, but son want the front to be so much higher that it looks dumb. A little angle is fine by me, but not something crazy.

Drop blocks would go under the axle which means u have to weld the leaf spring mounts under the axle. With this said, the leaf spring being put under the axle gives u 3" of drop from stock, no need for blocks. Better option would be if u can find drop shackles with keep stock leaf spring mounts but drop the body down lower spring

X2 The best way to do it is with drop shackles. I tried to lower the rear of my 2004 Ram without welding it. After the rearend came out at 40mph and the tow truck fee it ended up costing me a pile of money. Luckily it was under warranty so I was able to put it back to factory and just told them the damn thing fell apart lol.
