Re: need to lower 3 inches a 79 1/2ton
get the junk yard sway bar 3/4 ton, they are much larger than 1/2 ton for 20 bucks like mentioned above. Cut one coil off the bottom of your front spring, that's free just a little labor, move your front rear spring hangar up 2" higher on the frame.... again free, just a slight pita cutting off the old rivets and drilling new holes, well I guess you will have to buy 8 grade eight bolts too reattach them to the frame so say that will cost you about $3.00. Then but a set of drop spring shackles for around 20 bucks. You are looking at less than $45 in parts and should give you a 2-3 inch front drop and 4" rear, with the money you saved doing it way, spend it on parts that need replacing you are bound to find (ball joints, tie rod ends, brake componets, etc) when you have it apart!
