Can I use those drop spindles with 4" drop springs? As long as I can creep over a speed bump I'm ok.
The rear will also get new springs and blocks to level it as well a notch. Pics of how the truck sits now are here. http://www.garagebuiltrides.com/home...lt-rides-truck

I'd try it....put it altogether and then see where your crossmember and everything else sits. I had my crossmember 3" off the ground...looked great but was a little scarey driving on Michigan roads!
