Dropping the Front on the 64

ok - so there are a million threads that touch on this - I didnt know which to try and resurrect - plus my searches never find the actual topic im looking for anyway.

So this is my daily beater - Ive posted in its current form on some other threads - she hasnt seen much makeover lately - just been my reliable driver - and i lover her for it

SO - currently I only have CPP drop springs and shocks - 3 front and 4 rear.

I love where the rear is (although i need to get some airlift load bladders to haul much more than leaves and balsa wood) but the front is our focus here. There really was NO stance change up front with the drop springs from stock. Some reading leads me to believe its sort fo a hit or miss with how low these trucks go with static drops - sometimes I see guys where all they did was cut a coil from stock springs and they are sitting way lower than me.

Leads me to the actual topic:

Ive got the speedway (CPP) 2.5" drop spindles and disc kit that Im getting ready to install.

I want her to have a raked stance - similar to this dudes SWB - you think Im gonna get there with this drop kit only or am I gonna need to modify springs some more too??
