Re: Drop too much or just right???
I can't tell from the pictures, but what is the tire size in the front? If you're running a tall tire in the front, a shorter tire may get you at the height you want.
With drop spindles and a lowering coil already installed in the front, you're getting close to being as low as you can get without spending a bunch on a custom front suspension (i.e: Dropmember). The BIGGEST concern for any '63-'87 truck lowered more than 5" in the front is the lower control arms. They hang lower than anything else on the front suspension, and you'll bang those things on everything if you don't drive carefully. Tubular arms will help a little bit, but they don't solve the issue. There's lots of threads on this site concerning sectioning crossmembers and Z'ing frames because of this exact issue.
