Will 2 1/2" front and rear 5" drop get a flat stance?

I want to lower my 71 swb. I've been looking at the the 2-4 drop from early classic as well as their 3 1/2-5" drop kits. I don't want to go to low but I also want a flat stance. The early classic pic all show a slight rake to the front. Does anyone have experience doing a 2 1/2-5" drop? So basically just using their drop spindles and 5" springs in the back? Thanks

I am curious about this one too. I used the 3.5/5 drop from ECE and am thinking of raising the front back up an inch with stock springs. My wheels have an offset that makes them rub. New springs are cheaper than new wheels. I have the lwb though.

is the pic in your avatar the setup you described? I'm worried about it being higher in the front but it looks like it would be fairly square.
