Bad.

5" blocks = bad axle worp and bad pinion angle not to mention it will be stressing the carrier bearing for the driveshaft

I'm thinking of removing leafs, i'm sitting on 4'' blocks now but it's just not low enough for me. I've seen a few "lowering leafs" for sale, is it virtually the same as taking a few out? I would assume so... Also, i found a few Drop Spindle kits online, they're a little steep in price for me, i'd rather bag it... But what's the cheap way to lower the front after the torsion bars are to the max?

If you go any lower than my trucks are in the pics above, it just isn't driveable.
