yeah, i was just wondering that if i was to buy 3" blocks and removed the middle leaf and flipped the overload if i would have any clearance issues other than the bumpstops? like my drive shaft hitting the cross member or anything? i'm ordering my blocks monday and need to figure out how to get the most drop outta it without having to cut any metal. how far can i lower the front before i'd have to cut out my fenders?
Depends on what wheels you have. The smaller wheel/tire combination the lower you will be able to go. I suggest using the 3 inch blocks and mounting the shackle of the leaf spring to the frame like they did here http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/su...-middle-leaf-removal-lowering-950/index2.html
the clearance issue is with the cross member behind the cab you must notch it as well as a small frame notch if you flip overloads and remove a leaf with 3" blocks i have 3's and no spring mods and i hit my un-notched frame and crossmember with anything more than 300lbs in the bed and a passenger on medium bumps
