I just bought a 92 B2200. Here is my question... I am going to do a static drop, should I index the torsion 4 or 5 splines? Next question, Flipping the ball joints, is that literally flipping them? Uppers to lowers visa versa??? I've got three inch blocks for the rear so thats easy. Should I cut the bump stops down? Last question.... After the drop can I drive it for a week or two with stock shocks on before I get the pup shocks put on? Want to get real low, but still drive intead of drag.

I was 4 spline dropped...(rear splines) I didnt remove my torsions...I kept a real nice ride too doing my way. could have EASILY done 5 spines but the front woulda been lower than the rear since i was 3" blocks

I rode for 2 1/2 weeks before getting shocks replaced

Oh...and DONT flip the balljoints...My wheels stayed stright up with the 3" blocks/ 4 spline drop and shortty shocks

i put the isuzu pup front shocks on the mazda and it rides nice... except for the fact that every little bump i hit my front tires rub in the wheel wells... ive cranked my torsions tighter and brought the front end up some but i still bottom out and rub my tires... what gives...
