Hi guys, just needed some advise. I have an 05" RC and the previous owner installed 2" lowering blocks onto the rear leaf springs and put the taller 45 series tires on the truck I think to fill in the wheel well gap. The truck runs and looks good, but the ride is very firm, and I dont like the way the rear seems to be wound up with no play or flex, with the bump stops rubbing.
My plan was to put the factory size tires back on and remove the 2" blocks from the rear in order to put back up to stock height and re-align it and go from there. I went to order new stock U-bolts/hardware from the dealer just to find out they have been discontinued.
Unsure what to do from here unless I go with JTSVP 1.5" blocks or smaller that come with hardware (just don't know how big of a differance that would make from the 2" blocks) and how the truck would sit, I do want a little rake in the look, but also want the truck to ride good. Thanks for any input...
