Hello, im new to the whole mini truck stuff. i just picked up a 95' nissan hardbody for $300 it runs got radio a/c it was cheap so i bought it its all stock.

I tinted the windows 4% fixed some body damage, and cranked the torsion bars as low as they go up front and put 3 inch blocks out back. but it sat wayyyy to high so i need help.....

How do i go about mono leafing thr springs im working on it now and have it all apart but i cant figure out how to get the speings apart thers a 14mm nut at the bottom but when i turn it it turn the whole nut and stud that goes through the middle of the springs please help !!!!!

< thanks, adam  

Some important and helpful info that I have heard and experienced myself correct me if I'm wrong anyone.

1. Monoleafing is/can be very unsafe, if that single (mono) spring breaks could be very dangerous, particularly if your driving

2. removing just the helper spring (short one on top) (you should have a total of 3)will only give you about 1/2", removing both I would guess 1 1/2". If you are going to take them apart you'll have to use 2 wrinches top and bottom and muscle or better yet air tools,if none call around and ask what they charge to remove if thats what you decide to do. just removed my back bumper, could not do it by hand, paid $25 at a body shop and if was off in about 10 minutes, 4 rusty bolts that were 26 years old

3. If you want to go lower which it sounds like you do, you'll have to bag your truck, bottom line.

Hope I was some help

So to sum it up I would stick with the blocks and torsions until you decide/are ready to bag it. If you wish it was lower just picture it whens its bag and that should cheer you right up  

i would recommend that you don't stack blocks in the back. people do it a lot to lift trucks and the blocks shift  

try some drop leafs for the back. or a taller block in the rear, i bought 5" blocks from aim industries for my s-10 and haven't had a problem yet (42,000 miles) they only cost $36 and came with new u-bolts.  

there are some composit leaf springs made for a jeep.with some mods you can get an engineered glass mono leaf to run around with. this one is for the guys who like different.whats up burnzya,gots your ride scrapin the asphalt i see!
