front spring issue

so about a year ago i did an sas on my 1991 pickup with wabfabs sas kit and the 5" hd springs. the issue that i am running into is that when the kit was done and installed im sitting 11 inches higher then stock. this is way more then i expected and has made my truck so tall that its dangerous in the maine winter.

I am looking for some suggestions on how to make this thing a little more safe. i have it sitting on 35s right now and would like to keep it on 35s butt was hoping to make it more like a 6 inch lift for the winters.

the back is adjutable in the shackles for 2 inches down and can remove a block if neccessary

any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I would say talk to the person you bought the kit from .

Could be some how you got the wrong parts .

Some pictures of your front suspension may give us some ideas .

Wabfab sells Trail-gear.
Install a set of 3" springs

Problem with the T-G front spring hanger is it adds1" of lift they don't tell you due to it's design.
