Don't be surpised if the front doesn't drop 3 inches.
Your truck has sagging old original springs.
Your new springs are 3" lower than NEW stock springs. If it doesn't drop as much as you want the option of trimming them is out. Alignment will be impossible. A better option is to wait until you can save up for drop spindles and good shocks. Cheap drop shocks will ride like crap.
I think the front will set higher than the back with a 3/5 drop,
