lower rear of 3500 ?I did a search....

Well after researching.....I called a few dodge dealers about the tsb kit to lower the rear 2 " and ah......729$ was the low.....just for the parts.....

Does anybody know where I can get the correct block to lower my 4x4 3500 duallie 2 " in the rear? at a planet EARTH price.

I don t know for sure.....I havn t looked , its dark now, but from what I ve read they should be around 4 inches....and the easy cure is to replace them with 2 inches...and possibly shorter U bolts.

I had to replace one of my rear spring blocks (cracked)

I just when to a spring shop....they had blocks....and they made 2 U bolts for me....I did the replacment in my driveway with a cutting torch in about 30 mins

If you don't want to do the work spring shops can fix you up by doing everything for you

With lowering the axle, won't you change the drivetrain alignment and cause too much wear on your u-joints??
