    Hello to all, any pictures of the blocks? Pictures of what the kit consists of? And a question, if the blocks are for the Front, how do you lower the Rear???

    Page one of this thread shows several pics of the blocks installed on my truck and some close up basics to help explain. I have pics of the final version on my facebook page(Tim Brogan) in my photo album. The final kit consists of 2 lowering cradles that accomplish roughly a 4 inch drop. Also included are new grade 8 5/8 U bolts for added security/strength. I also include 2 new grade 8 spring pack replacement bolts since this bolt is what locks everything into place and the original is usually pretty worn out. I can also text additional pics to anyone that supplies me their cell number.

    I realize I'm getting into this conversation pretty late but I'm new to the forum. I've bought a few parts form Tim and have been happy with my experience so I wanted to spend some time poking around on his thread to see what he's been talking about.

    On another topic, i've been researching lowing options and was stoked to see he had a custom option! Tim, I'll email you, I'm hoping these are still available!

    The question I have is with he 3.5" drop, any suggestions out there for shock options. I spent a bit of time on the thread and either read over it, or didn't see discussions for shock brands and fitment after installing the kit.

    Thanks,

    Jay

    Yes I have both Ford and Dodge version in stock. Use rear shocks for front and use shorter bump stops.

    Hi all. Hoping to order a set for my van once Tim has them back in stock.
    Dragging up an old thread but just seeing if anyone has any photos of their van/truck with the new ride height? Would love to see how they sit. Thanks.
