Default Drive shaft angle

Hello all I'm new here. I want to lower my jimmy exactly like 1998blazerls did with his 4 door. Stock tire size with 3 inch drop coils and 3 inch drop blocks. He mentions nothing about drive shaft angle. Can anyone say that they have had that issue with a 3/3 drop? I see people who go lower that have that issue but I just wanna make sure because this is my daily and 3/3 is about as low as I wanna go right now. Thank you

Make sure the blocks you get have the taper to allow the correct angle. I recommend JTR blocks. I used them on my S10 and I have 0 shutters or vibrations.

Okay I was looking at western chassis just because they also have the springs. I will make sure that they have the angle already cut. If not I will go with jtr.
