here is my question.....do they make "strong" leaf springs that sit low?.....I want a about a 2 1/2-3 inch drop....I flipped it and it was about 3 inches too low.....I also want to use this truck for ocasional hauling and toweing so springs need to be hard......am I living in a dream or is this possible?

Early Classic's 4" drop leaf springs are VERY strong. I do plenty of hauling in my truck, and quite frankly, it feels the same whether I have a bedful of furniture or whether it's empty. It's quite possible.
