if you did that wouldn't you just end up with the exact same lift, flex etc. why do you want to get rid of the blocks?
Yes that will work, but your shocks are going to limit your flex anyway.
a lot of other people on this board run chevy's without lift blocks.. attaining 4-5in of lift... how do they do it......
so would you say that i should just scrap the idea?
How bout a compromise?Use a length of 2x2 square tube between the frame and shackle mount as in the original spacer idea. Then swap the chevy shackle around so that it mounts at the frame and run a longer second shackle off of that. This will net some lift from the tube and some from the shackle. If you need more you might consider adding a leaf from another pack or putting a stock toy leaf on the bottom of the chevy pack or something.
Your idea will work. It will however change your pinon angle and put a lot of leverage on the frame so be sure to plate both sides well. You can also throw a little coin at it and buy a lifted chevy spring for the back. or add a leaf or two to the pack. Remember however that your spring rate will change if you change springs or modify springs.
