Suspension drop question
 

Hello folks. Ive been researching alot on this board about suspension drops. I have an 71 chevy c10 with factory leaf spring set up.I've decided on the following

1. DJM flipkit to get 5" in rear
2.ECE 2" drop spindles in the front maybe 2.5"
3.ECE 1.5"drop springs
4. Need advice on shocks please

This should give me the 4"/5" drop i'm looking foor.This should look good with 15X8 rallys with 275/60-15 on rear and 245/60-15 in front. I'm looking for alittle nose down attitude.I aint planning a full blown restore for a year or so just want to get it dependable and have fun with it.I have to put a motor in it so I decided that should be a good time for suspension work also.I'm getting ready for winter time projects.
Thanks for you suggestions and advice in advance

Call ECE for a good shock application. They sell the correct length KYB gas shocks for your drop.

Like lolife said, I had that same setup before I bagged mine and used the KYB shocks ECE sells for the 4/6 drop kit.

I usually go to the extreme with every project. Just like to be different. It also rides and handles better in my opinion.
