3" lowering blocks - thoughts?

[100e pard]

My dad has made me some 3" blocks. They have a wider base to go with the extra height.

 

Im still using the U bolts from a 2" kit as there is sufficient thread on them.

 

Id like some thoughts please?

Anyone had them done before, are they safe?

 

ill get pics of them on tomorow if the rain knocks off.

 

Cheers, Pard

Best is to get them decambered by -2inch and maybe add a -1 inch block?

I ran 2 inch lowering blocks and decambered multi leaf springs from Jones's springs.

 

You can get 3, 4, 5 inch lowering blocks from the States.

 

So it can be done, you just have to be conscious of the angles and stresses put on the spring itself as a result of the taller block!!
