Moving the spring from the stock on top of the rear position to under the housing like a car. Seems like a nice simple easy way to lower the back of the truck. Any thoughts, concerns etc??

I dont to C notch it so I just used the lowering shackles in the rear. The way my truck squats under hard acceleration Im keeping it the way it is now.. I am truckless..
