Thanks guys, I'll go pick up a fat chick to ride in the passenger seat, 20 bags of cement in the bed, and flatten the tires, while I drive around town looking for shackles and hangers.

I'm actually checking with Early Classic to see if they have a front coil/ rear leaf drop kit that includes shocks - I figure if I break up with the fat chick, what I save on food I can spend on a lowering kit.

Edit - Early Classics doesn't seem to have hangers, just brackets, so I'm still searching. If I lower the rear 4" and the front 2" via shortened coils up front and shackels/hangers in the rear, will I need new shocks?
