      a Dropped mono leaf (other than fiberglass) would cause many performance issues. It is not a sought after part so there is a limited market for them.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      Here is a way to use any multi you want for long term and still use your current axle short term.

      There was a set of fiberglass monoleafs in the for sale section. They won't lower it, but blocks will! I had similar springs and was pleased,

      My glass springs lower the car about 1.5" from stock, but I think the minimum available spring rate is 180 lbs/in.
