Front suspension question
 

So I have two questions. I want to put new springs in the front because mine are so old that the front left is low, resulting in right rear being high lol. If I'm going to do new springs I want to take the opportunity to lower it a bit, but I don't want to mess with all the other components. So would 1 or 2 inch drop springs be okay without having to change other parts?

My other question is what can I do to the front end to get rid of the big tugboat in choppy waters kind of feel? The truck leans so bad in turns and its just sketchy. Truck will never be a road racer, I like the drag strip myself, but id like to tighten things up a bit.

I have the money for new springs, and I want to put on some really nice shocks as well, but I can't spend a fortune because there are other parts of the truck getting most of the budget (motor and rear-end)

Im also limited to bolt ons because I don't have a welder

Your stock springs probably already have at least a 1 inch drop in them from age. I have 2 1/2 drop spindles with stock front springs. I am going for another 1 inch of drop. I'm probably going with 2 inch drop springs. 2 inch for you should be fine. Any more than that will result in alignment issues. If your truck does not have a front sway bar you need to add that for the roll. Best place is the salvage yard for that. You can get all the brackets to go with it. You can use one of the square body trucks also. More availability for those years. Here is the one I used.
