well right now i have a 4" block w/o taking an spring out...would it be better with a 3" block minus the middle leaf and flip the bottom spring???

need photo to see...PLS

 

Leave um like that. You pull middle you going lose some spring rate if you carry stuff in the back.

 

This is a 3" block with the middle leaf pulled, nothing flipped on 20s.

 

does it makes a difference if i use 15" rims than 17"

 

I used to run with a 3in block & a pulled leaf and bottomed out all the time. I hated it.
I now run with a 4in block and am much happier. just my 2c.

 

3" blocks, mid leaf pulled, notch

 

do u have a pic off your yota..??or any pic off a 3/4 drop w just a block on the back

 

Here is a pic with a pulled leaf and 3in block on 17's. It really looks exactly the same with a 4in block except i dont bottom out on everything. I did roll the lips on my fenders to prevent rubbin.

 

Just to give you an idea......here is mine with a 2/3 drop using 2" drop spindles in front, 3" blocks in back with Toxic drop shocks at all 4 corners. My torsions are stock and still have all leafs.

 

IMO leave the 4 inch blocks and notch the back. Get drop shocks and leave the leafs alone.

 

Here's my truck with a 3" block in the back, leaf springs untouched, 15" wheels:

 

and lo pro's

 

thnaks braddas...i took my bump stop off the back is it clears about 4" or more. do u think ill bottom out if i take a leaf out..??

 

why is my front seem so much higher? im runnin 195/50's flipped bjs & cranked torsions.

 

^^ That's the exact same setup as me, but my front tires tuck. You probably need to cut your bumpstops.

 

Looks like you cranked them up, not let them down.

 

hahaha thats what i was thinking, i have mine torsions turned down untill it touched the bump stops then i cut the stops and this is how i sit also 3'' blocks in the back and gabriel pro shocks

 

Did you crank them all the way down

 

Are those 15's or 16's?

 

i usually crank the torsions (from factory set key positions) till there is roughly 2 inches of threads showing at the top of the bolts....... that will usually set the trucks at around 3 inches of drop. depending on how worn the components are in the suspension of course.
