[Syty] Lowering Blox...

Now,

I have another question:  As a "late-bloomer" to the SyTy World, I'm trying to determine whether or not the LOWERING BLOCKS on my 2nd hand Syclone (#773) are stock or added by that weasel(s) who owned it before me (and backed-down the odometer better than 49k miles... among other mischief!).  Who knows for sure?

I checked through all those assembly drawings from PAS as well as the factory GMC diagrams in their Tech-Manual, and all these sources say there should be NO BLOX there.  Moreover, after setting the front-ride-height to the requisite 28.5" the Truck definitely has a somewhat goofy stance-- like those '60s funny cars which looked like they were doing perpetual wheelies.  On some grades, the vehicle looks perfectly flat-- definitely not that dragster-rake we're all used to seeing in modern pick-ups.

I'm getting/gotten to the age where I'm more concerned about inadequate ride-height and scraping my pipes and such on severe-angle driveways and proliferating speed-bumps.  I just wanna make sure that if I remove those Blocks I won't be screwing up the pinion angle or violating some other sacred aspect of Syclonery.
