Static drop... NEED HELP!!

the back end isn't a priority to me right now... thats later... i need to get the front low... btw, hotdawg, i have the same wheels as you, almost... 14x8 i think... i know they won't tuck, so i am bouncing to stock mazda rims with chrome rings, chrome lugnuts, and the stock chrome caps...

with the setup i had, mine was very low, prob 5"-6" from the ground to the frame running the stock 14" wheels. it was riding bump stops in the front, but lacked @ 1/2" from the frame to bump stop in the rear.....if you'll cut the bump stop brackets off the front, re-index the torsion bars in the front, you could get lower than that, but not have a prob w/bottoming out because of removing the bump stop bracket, but this could put to much stress on the ball joints. depending on the shock you run up front, if you add dropped control arms or dropped spindles into that equation you could prob sit close to 3" or lower & not have probs w/ the bj's.

now if you had 16's & ran the dropped control arms or dropped spindles, flipped the bj's, & reindexed the torsions you'd prob end up @ the same height (@ 3") in the front because of the increased wheel size...i don't know if you can run the spindles + control arms + flip the bj's & reindex the torsions & removed the bump stop brackets what that would get...i'd say you could very possible come close to layin on 16's like that. as for the back, w/o a frame notch, your limited to how far you can go static.....4" blocks, leave the main spring & one other, remove the bump stop & you'll almost if not have your frame sitting on the axle in the rear. with a notch, it would keep you from bottoming out, sorta the same as removing the bump stop brackets in the front makes more room for suspension travel.

my old truck, a 1989 mazda b2200, had flipped balljoints, no shocks, no torsion bars, and no balljoints. it also had no brackets for any of that either... it rode super low but was super hard ride. plus my tension rod was rubbing my steering link... it was bad... i couldn't drive it till it was bagged in front... which i never got around to before i sold it...

which one it had flipped ball joints or no ball joint its gonan be impossible to drive WITHOUT BALLJOINTS ???

lol... meant flipped balljoints, no bumpstops... ha ha ha

do not buy spindles unless you have 17" or larger wheels the mazda 4X4 off set will work with spindles to

i wasn't planning on buying anything... i can use my stock equipment to lay out...

so flippin bjs, goin mono leaf with blocks, and cranking/re-indexing torsions will give me a stance with my frame about an inch from the ground?

pics of this?

as fgor the bj flippin, there's plenty of pics on here. As for going mono, get under there and look at it, it's pretty self explanatory imo once you see it. And as for reindexing, someone posted a link to a nice lil quick write up in the other bj thread or something. But really, I haven't seen anything ceopt the carb and vacc lines on these trucks that's hard lol.

As for being an inch off the ground. Not gonna happen unless you get a notch done in the rear unless I'm wrong. Also you'd need to grind off the bumpstop bracket in the front...and definitely get smaller tires
