well as you know i am gonna lower the blue beast this spring. coils aught to to it up front. out back is where i am having a dilemma. i was originally going to go with lowering blocks but the things i hear about wheel hop and axle wrap are a nightmare. aaaand, since i still want to take her to the track, i need something that's gonna lower the a$$ end and not lose what little hooking power i have. other than a TVS or a 4 link (which get mad expensive) is there a place you know of that i can get just a new set of leaves that lower an R/T 2"? i don't want to unpack my leaves and remove one making some kind of bastardized 'franken'-leaf" so basically i am looking for a set of lowered leaves PLUS a place that makes something to the effect of Cal-traks but for a lowered suspension. no ladder bars, no blocks, no shackles, no TVS. thanks!



P.S:
i know it was a PITA reading all that so here's a funny picture to make it all worth it.

ummm... well, it seems that you know what you want...but....
lowering springs wont help the whole wheel hop issue you might face,
shackles will allow you to keep the stock strength springs, which will do fine,
plus they're easier to install than leaves,

 

i saw a shackle lowering kit...

yay! i remembered

 

Yes! Thanks spidey!

 

Ya after i saw his leafs he got i want them now...

but i dont want to go through the gay hassle of getting my caltrac bushing out of the old ones and destroying them...

otherwise i would be all other them..


Get the leafs, they actually have a BETTER load rating then the stock r/t leafs, since the factory 1in drop was dodge removing one leaf.

then after you get those drop leafs, get a set of cal-tracs (they act like a 4link system) and they offer the caltracs in a style for lowerd trucks.. it what i have, along with spidey.

and a set of drop shocks, I use Toxic Drop Shocks they are very stout, or you can spend alot and get a set of adjustable QA1s good for track and street.

and a simple set of 3in drop coils up front for a 2in drop on your r/t will be perfect. Its what i have now, and i use the toxic shocks up front also.

My 275/50/17s don't rub up front with a 2in drop.
