I'm not familiar with the term squatted. Looks like you have a 2wd. This is where I look for 2wd lifting info;

Are you talking about only installing the front body lift spacers?

...and personally i think squatting in general looks like ass.

for those of you that don't know, "squatting" refers to lifting the front of a truck only. In some cases, lifting the front and lowering the rear. It has been a big thing here in NC for a couple years now.

No the lifted coil springs

Now i might just want to do 2 in coil springs and -1 in blocks for rear

I thought this was going to be a thread about homeless people living in an abandoned building lol! I think it looks silly unless you are doing it with a long travel setup like a pre runner otherwise you just look like you got to much weight in the back.

This is an instructional thread as I thought it was the verb form of what my dog does in the back yard.

Sweet! mine already looks like that because of the worn out suspension! ...and I hate it. :(

I hate it too, that's why I'm doing the add-a-leaf. Got the passenger side done last night and gained 1". Doing the driver's side this weekend to finish it out.

To me the only time that its acceptable to have the front higher than the back is when you're bagged and you have to air up to get over speed bumps and such. LOL

ckroll98 11-01-2013 09:55 AM

My leaf springs were flat, so the add-a-leaf was necessary first. I'll do shackles next. Wanna do the Ball Joint flip with spacers on the front first to see how much lift I can get, then match the rear shackles.

If you have a 4x4 blazer with 141k on it like mine the leaf springs in the rear wear out and it squats on its own lol.

I've always heard it called cali lean. Either way, it looks like trash.
