Sorry, no pics today. The problem was it had 5" rear drop springs but it was on the bump stops. The 4 inchers gave it just enough free travel to provide a comfortable ride. I know some guys will shave the bumpstops and all that, but in this case we're trying to build a longer distance driver suited for a variety of conditions so practicality was the big factor in raising it up. We changed from a 4.5×5 to a 2.5×4. Removing the 2 " drop springs in front but keeping the 2.5 inch dropped spindles and swapping 5" drop springs in back for 4 inchers.
