    come back to me when you can say anything of substance and have any evidence to back it up.

    youve stated nothing of value other than your baseless opinion which you are passing off as fact.

    How about you open up a high school math book and read about levers and applied force. Then you might realize that what I'm saying is mathematical fact and not opinion you moron. Again I cant fix stupid but I can diagnose it. Ignorance can be taught but stupidity is forever.

    like i said dumbass if you bothered to read.....

    the fact of what you are saying is true......but what real world effect does it have....if any?

    if spacers reduce life by 10 miles...then yeah...its not an issue.....if its 100,000 miles, then yeah you have a case

    and seeing as you cant give any quantifiable answer.....you are spouting BS.....now i realize that is hard for you to understand.....so let me explain it in retard:

    saying "oh i see this all the time" isnt an answer.......i see shit all the time on cars without spacers too..


    frankly if spacers were as damaging as you claim.....wed be seeing trucks with leafsprings cracked left and right......but we dont.

    Actually I do. And I see a lot of de arched springs. The only time is see searched springs on a stock or non block lifted truck it is due to overloading or flat out abuse. But I personally have wrecked a set of leaf springs in 10k because I put 3 inch blocks on it and drove it hard on and off road. To put this into perspective how many race trucks do you see running lift blocks? None never not gonna happen. Because lift blocks are bad for suspension..... anything else? Just stop I'm proving you wrong everytime whether you see it or not.

    you have?.....wow really where?.....in your own head doesnt count.....what PROOF have you provided?......not your opinions....your opinions dont mean shit.....you need PROOF to prove something.

    there are a lot of things "race trucks" do that arent on other cars.....using them as a metric doesnt make sense...

    ive seen racecars that dont run air filters.....are those damaging too?.......should we all take off our air filters?

    Only take off your air filter if you plan on rebuilding you engine every 5k or less like they do on actual race vehicles. But pertaining to suspension there is a lot to learn and mimic from race vehicles if you want longevity and proper performance. The Vegas to Reno race happens soon. I bet you won't see a single truck running lift blocks. Because endurance is key. And actually those trucks usually run the axle over the leaf springs because that further reduses the leverage and allows running a longer leaf spring to be used for more articulation. But I dont expect that you will grasp that concept

    :anonymous:Blocks and spacers are bad even within 3inches.

    What proof do you want? Do I have to stand next to you and show you how to use a wrench for you to grasp this concept? You are an idiot. You keep asking for proof and I have given it to you in many different ways. You must be one of those backwoods people I see on TV that only has a 4th grade education and cant grasp reality outside of the tiny town you grew up in. Well guess what? Your mama wasn't right about everything bobby.

    Wow... ok Ricky Bobby. You need to take a math class so that you can grasp what I'm talking about. Obviously this all went right over your head.

    OP I'm sorry that me and this moron hijacked your thread. In reality I recommend that you go with a stable 2-2.5 inch lift with spacers and add a leafs. The truck will handle extra load and give you a better stance. If you want to go bigger then it gets a lot more expensive to do it right. Give the guys and gals at toytec a call and they can set you up straight with the right stuff. Knowing what truck you drive would help. I dive a 06 bcsb prerunner. I have a proper 3 inch lift and it cost 1200.00 to do it the right way. But you can get 2 inch spacers and an add a leaf with an alignment for about 400.00 and run that truck for a good long time with no issues.

    Dude give... it... up. I've given mathematical proof that lift blocks cause more wear and tear on leaf springs. Just because your too stupid to wrap your head around MATHEMATIC FACTS DOESNT MAKE YOU RIGHT. grow up and read a book. I have built 10 second drag cars and trucks with 15 inches of travel. I speak from experience. You speak from idiocy. SHUT THE FUCK UP UNTIL YOU HAVE SOMETHING KNOWLEDGABLE TO ADD. so far you have done nothing but challenge me with no intellectual input of your own. Which leads to the conclusion that im right and your a moron. Until you post something intellectual this conversation is over.
