lowering question
Hi everyone. I recently traded my iroc for a '79 2wd K5 blazer. I've been searching on the form and I cant find a solution. I want to lower it but I don't want it to low. The first pic is my blazer but i have to wait to get it down here due to transportation issues. I hope "seth is usdm" doesn't mind if I use his blazer for an example. His truck is a little high for me. I want mine to be lower in the back without a flip kit. Would a 3/5 drop give a nice stance to it with rallys?

Re: lowering question
There's not a lot offered for the rear of a Blazer. A shackle will hit the fuel hose and I don't think they make a hanger for the front of the leaf either. That leaves you with dropped leaf springs or a flip. I did a flip on mine and I thought it sat too low in the rear. I ended up switching to 56" leafs and flipping the rear hanger bracket upside down. It ended up being a 4.5-5" drop.
