lookin at puttin some on the hoopty and the frame is maybe 4" from laying. I got some questions...

Should I just fab some up with trailer balls or blocks of steel? Or should I buy some with the brackets and all, so the blocks are replacable rather than welded on.
Are the ones you can buy tall enough to cover the distance I need?
Are the Ti blocks shorter than the steel blocks? lookin at AVS

should I mount them so the rear edge hits first rather than flat with the ground so they don't break or rip off if they catch a crack in the road?

I wanna put em under the front and maybe inside the frame rail so less noticable.. good idear?

In a way I'd like to, but I'd loose my a/c heater box, have to do a mini tub, a c-notch, probably somethin with the a-arms and do somethin different with the rear setup.

A drop spindle up front will get it very close but my 17" front tires are already 1/8" from the a/c box. The rear has room for another 3" if I can figure out a different setup for the rear bags, the cups are pretty tall.
