Did you used the actual stock Mopar Leafs and remove one band?

Speaking of suspensions.
Just installed these during vacation. The drop was 2 inches and
the ride stiffened up quite a bit. I wanted to see if I could get
the lowering I wanted without the 1"1/2 steel blocks. Guess what!
I ended up taking the overload spring out on each side. This lowered
the Dak another 3/4 inch and really smoothed out everything. I was
surprised at how well the truck handles with this unusual setup.
Bending country roads at 60-70mph are a blast. I've already pissed
off 1 late model chebbie s-10 in the slalom.
Anyone need any custom SOLID steel lowering blocks?
