okay so ....Hotrodding is a big term...One mans rocker dragging hotrod is another mans tow rig for his boat. One person wants it up high another down low. So it's not which is best but which is best for your application. I have build alot of 60's trucks and have always like to start with the trucks with out leaf springs because for what i like to do it's faster/cheaper. I like the ride of coils or air bags over leaf springs and i like'em low and lean kinda thing.... Springs aren't impossible to lower it's just more of a hassel for me. Put the rear end over the springs, take the spring packs apart and bobs your uncle . But in a rear coil truck 4 bolts new lowering coils or air bgs and you have a better ride and your low and moving on . If your going to set up to tow a boat or somethng maybe springs would work better for you. So I would start with whats the over all plan to have the truck do or be used for and pick the right application for the build....but thats just my opinion
