Ok guys just bought a 92 Cherokee and been doin little stuff that the guy before me failed to. It's been lifted I think 4 in but the back is a good bit higher. I was wondering if I could level it with spacers. It has new control arms and drop brackets already. Any opinions?

U bolts get loose, not blocks.

Blocks are fine if they are not huge.

Spacers can level it.

I run about an inch or so higher in the back. That way when its loaded or a full tank, etc.... it sets level.

Preference really

Just get rid of the blocks in the back. There's no reason to have them and no matter what people say, they aren't desirable.

LOL it needed repeated.

Blocks are fine.

To be truthful. A person who understands suspension would not condemn blocks.

But in fairness everyone is entitled to their opinion.

So carry on
