I lowered my bj8 and my mechanic picked up u bolts at the NAPA store and
placed 1/2 inch (?) block in to lower. This gave the look I wanted.

The lowering blocks that I used on my 49 Ford back in the 50s were
nothing but 1/4 in steel rectangles that any machine shop could make.
I had 4" blocks on the Ford, very extreme. I can't imagine that you
would want very much lowering though. You would probably need to get
the U-bolts fabricated as well to get the extra length.
