DJM lowering blocks are junk

i've had problems with these since the first install. when i first put them on, the nipple that aligned the axle broke off and i had to drill all the way through and put a long center pin through. since i've had them, the ride got gradually worse and worse.

finally, it got to the point that the truck vibrated terribly in every gear and i finally decided to throw it on the lift at work and check it out... turns out BOTH blocks had giant chunks missing letting the axle tilt backwards and making the u-joint bind slightly. never again will i buy blocks from DJM.



i replaced them with the 'superior automotive' brand that autozone and oreilly carries and they're a ton better. much better and more solid material, not shitty cast.

if you're using these lowering blocks, i suggest keeping an eye on them.


edit: picture was taken during removal, btw. i'm not running just one leaf spring lol

DAM DAM, that shit looked horrible, how can they sell such a shitty product! Thanks for the info!

i was a bit surprised myself. i've heard nothing but good things about their company/products. if you use their lowering blocks, definitely shoot for the steel ones.

Well I already got lowering blocks but I found a company that makes lower leaf springs for the b22 instead of using lowering blocks, but I'm kinda on the fence about it.
