Pinion angle is messed up. Use 2" drop hangers and 1" blocks.

Subject: DML: 97' Lowering Problem
Hi all, I recently lowered my 97' cc dakota. I used coils for the front for
1" and to test the looks and ride out, i picked up 3" blocks for the back.
Everything looked good and installed right. But then between my 2nd and 3rd
gear shifts, i would hear a clunk, sounding like it was comming from the
transmission/drive line. It would only do this if the truck was like
coasting down a hill with no gas applied, or if I was comming off the pedal
before the gear changes. So pretty much it was happening if not enough
rpm's or speed applied. I took the blocks off and raised the back to stock,
and it went away. Any idea whats causing this or a way to fix this? I was
thinking of getting leaf springs next if i can fix this. thanks
