Anyone ever put drop blocks or cut stuck springs to lower the car? Just a thought some 1" drop blocks would be good on the rear and how much should be cut on the front. Thoughts would be highly appreciated/ Experience.

I have a set of 1 inch lowering blocks on my Stroker. All you need is longer U bolts.

Be very carefull with cutting springs and not having dampers to control them. When you cut a spring, it raises the spring rate, if your dampers aren't up to the task, you get sea sick, and look like one of those ricer guys bouncing their way down the street.

1 inch blocks and longer U bolts. Cool.

Will, I have a spare of stock springs. So I was just curious.... Who will cut springs is the question.
