hey dude u can get blocks at any suspension store for like $60 .. but if u dont have the money u can cut some blocks up out of hardwood and get longer u bolts from 4x4 shop.. they will prolly give u the bolts!!! just
p.s make sure u drill a hole in the bottom of the wood to locate the block.. u dont wanna do it dodgey and have it fall out!

If lowering blocks are used they must be either steel or aluminium.
From memory lowering blocks cannot exceed 2 inches also, but check that with QLD transport.
I suggest you all read the Light Modification Guide, before you kill yourselves or someone else, or get fined and come on here to bitch about it.
