There are a lot of lowering threads, from a couple of inches to full on lay frame. Do a search and read thru some of the problems/benefits of each. New springs can be had for $100 or so an end in almost any drop. Also keep in mind too much spring drop in the front can leave the springs loose in their retaining seats.
Ok thanks for the help...
