It depends on the amount of drop you are after! On my 33 I have reversed spring eyes, removed spring leaves, dropped axle and raised the spring mount. Dropped axle was 2 inches, the spring an inch and the mount an inch and the relaxed spring, so 5 inches. Then the rims and tires are the smallest diameter that allows me to maintain the scrub clearance. It the old Alice in Wonderland deal, which way you go depends on where you want to end up!
