I just put 4 inch lowering blocks in my car. Are there any other mods i should make so it dont stress my u joints or anything? Or is it fine just the way i put them in.

Check your pinion angle. You can do a search, it's been discussed in the last few days. Basicly if your trans is down 3 degrees, your pinion should be up about the same amount. You can buy or make wedges to correct the angle if needed.
Make sure your shocks don't bottom out under compression,& your brake lines are not going to get crushed, or stressed, and look for any other interferance during suspension travel.

my blocks are home made and have a built in 4 dergree drop to the front , it keeps everything spinning just right . and since they are made out of 2X4 1/4 wall tubing , they are just about indestructable .
