Any pics of 4wd with the rear lowered?

Im getting ready to remove my leveling kit and replace my 4.5 inch blocks with shorter ones, do too a slight medical issue I need to do this, if any one has pics can you please share, and how well will it work with my factory overloads? I found a few people who did it but no pics, also this is the kit I was gonna use, let me know whatcha think.

There are a few pics floating around here somewhere. If those blocks in that kit are aluminum, I would stay away from them.
You can use a Ford cast iron block instead. I got mine from the local yard for $10. Just got to get some u-bolts made up.

The reason I say that about the aluminum blocks, is that on my lifted jeep I had a set deteriorate. Granted it took about 4 years in Chicagos weather. But still it was pretty scary when I discovered it.
