Overload springs
 
I got a suggestion to remove the overload springs in the rear. Should drop it about another 1/2-3/4". Has anyone done this before?

It looks like it'll be pretty easy to do though.

Absolutely, and you'll gain better ride quality as well.

What the D man said.

Sweet I'm hoping to do it this weekend

I'd do it, and maybe the bottom leaf as well. You really should replace the u bolts when you do.
Then get some timbrens.

Overloads are gone :D

I'll get some better pics tomorrow. I couldn't be more happier with the outcome, it dropped it considerably! And it was actually fairly easy to do.
