That's about nearly impossible as you will have to change something to get your truck lower than 3"/4".

For instance, we just tied up lowering my '69 4.5/6" and used 2.5" drop spindles, 2" front drop springs, 6" rear drop springs, new shocks, shock relocaters, disc brake upgrade..... etc.



You could install bags without much modifaction to the current suspension, but it will require removing your springs, running lines, power, compressors, valves, tank... etc.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
Just replacing your heated springs?
Using over a 3" drop spring in the front will cause alignment issues.
Most 3/5 spring drops will require drop shocks.
What kind of budget do you have for your suspension drop?

[drewfever1020]

4/6 drop doesnt look that low!
My truck is about thay low right now but i heated my springs haha

[drewfever1020]

i understand im going to need drop shocks and spindles but i want a drop to were my tires go in the finders just a little!

So you are looking for your drop to "tuck" your tires.

As lolife99 mentioned.... the next question we will have it, what's your budget?

We can direct you to a mild setup, or go all out for the wild install.

[lolife99]

This is my 5.5"/7.5" static drop on my '69.
I think you will need bags to get it lower. Also,... your front tires will have to "tuck" to be able to drive it this low.

[drewfever1020]

a mild setup would be good!
i just want my truck to look low but good!
that staic drop looks good

You need to figure out specifically what you want, how much you're willing to spend, then come back and ask your questions. Right now, you're just generating posts from people trying hard to help, but not being able to read your mind.

BTW, there is a LOT of information in this forum if you'll take a few hours of time to read the various threads that are already here. You may even find the answers to the questions you're having trouble formulating in this thread.

I'm running 215/70-15's up front and 275/60-15's in the rear. Front shocks are Belltech shocks I had,... and the rears are KYB"s from ECE.

[lolife99]

drew,... my drop includes 2.5" drop spindles, 3" drop front coils, all 4 drop shocks, shock relocators for the rear, 6" drop rear springs, adjustable track bar, 1.5" drop blocks and a bolt in c-notch.
ALOT of stuff to change.
If you have any questions,... just ask. We are here to get your truck riding low,...

If you're referring to the kit lolife99 posted on his '69; he purchased the items separately from different vendors.

If you are looking for a kit which will include 99.9% of everything you will need, check out Early Classic Enterprises (www.earlyclassic.com). I purchased my 4.5/6" drop with disc brake upgrade from them, and had zero issues in installing it.

[burke117]

If I was to use 3" spring in the front and 5" springs in the back would I have alignment or any other issues? Or would I be better of doing a 2" spring in the front and a 4" spring in the rear.
