block/shackle?
okay, first off i tried searching, and i couldn't find the information i was looking for.
currently i have stock springs in the back with stacked blocks (superlift+stock). i was thinking about getting the chevy drop shackles and getting rid of the stock 2" block, and maybe eventually trying to get rid of the superlift block as well. what i am wondering is will i need to get longer shocks? i have the shocks that came with the superlift now. i would like to get as much flex as possible out of my rear.

okay, i was just wondering because bocks don't really help travel at all, and it seems like a shackle would let the axle travel farther. is that incorrect?

When I installed my used Superlift, I wanted nothing to do with double blocking. So....I installed a Procomp short universal AAL and a Belltech 6400 2" chevy drop shackle. Sits really level. SL shocks are fine...it's still about 3-4" total lift.
FYI....2" chevy drop shackles added 1.5" lift. If you pull your stock 2.5" blocks and add the drop shackles...you'll be going down an inch.
Here's mine w/ Superlift......stock blocks, short AAL, and 2" chevy drop shackles...
