Has anyone tried these babies out? I'm really thinking seriously about trying these 4 1/2" Monoleafs out from Performance Online. Does anyone have any comments about these. Want my truck a little lower, but don't have time to install MII so I am willing to sacrifice the drivability for a while.

Thanks-
Dane W

I am interested in a set of these myself. I am wondering how close the axle will get to the rubber stops. I guess you can always relocate the rubber bumpers.When you find out how they are let me know.

All this talk of lowering springs confuses my logic.

On my 63 uni I removed the center leaf from the spring pack. This lowered the truck 2 inches. My main leaf is now straight. other than the small amount that can be gained by reverse eyes, How can you get a spring to lower the front any more.? This would make the leaf arched up . Besides the issues of spring to frame clearance and oil pan clearance, I just dont understand how to get lower than what I have.
A 4 1/2 " drop spring would not leave more than an inch of frame clearance no matter how you do it.

Pics or a smack up side the head --PLEASE
