    I've got 3" blocks and 2 coils cut in front.

    Thinking about going 4" in the back but I think there are some problems with that? Is that true????

    Here's my wagon. I heated the coils and dropped it 2 1/2".

    **Disclaimer** This was just for fun to see how it sits. I have new dropped coils ready to go in, when we get a couple straight days of rain.!:D **


    BTW, I have 2" and 3" lowering blocks. I haven't experimented yet.

    4in block in rear and two coils cut off the front. Lake pipes make great skid plates.

    Damn that paint turned out sweet! It really is period-perfect. I've been waiting to see this finished, was there a thread I missed? Looks great.
