I shaved my blocks down to a third of their original thickness.

And, what Jeff said above.

LOL @ stacking the blocks

if one block stock is ONE INCH! then 2 blocks stacked (if possable) like you said would be????

Simple math here...

Dude... I wasn't asking how thick the blocks were, I was just asking how much each block RAISES the rear end.  Thats all.  :icon_neutral:

the thickness of the blocks IS the amount the rear will be raised......

this is not hard "dude"

one block = one inch
shave 1/2 off that block = lower 1/2 inch from what it was
Add 2 blocks (if possable) = raise 2 inches

I didn't know- that is why I asked.  Plain and simple.

Also Nick if you don't like how low Matt's TGP is...then if you get one...make sure it's not as low.....as the guy can make them to lower any amount....

You should have said that in the first place- this is exactly what I was asking for, not the harassment over the simple questions I asked.  Done
