C/20 Leaf Spring Questions.

[Rodk65]

I am finding so much conflicting information I am not sure what is correct. I have a 71 C/20 leaf spring suspension. ECE has a 4” drop leaf spring for a C/10 half ton truck. ECE lowering leaf springs are 2¼ inches wide with a half ton rating. I measured my C/20 springs to verify and my springs are also 2¼ wide. Is there any reason why I couldn’t swap my springs for a set of ECE drop leaf springs? I understand that it will lower my towing capacity but not so much that I wouldn’t be able to tow our boat and ATV's around. I would like to lower the stance and hopefully make it ride a little better. Any information is appreciated.
