Got a lowering question.

If I want to just lower a truck lets say 2/4 then what are my options. I lowered my short bed 4/6 with 2.5" drop spindles and 1.5" drop springs and a flip kit in the rear. If I get another C10 for a daily driver I may want to drop it just a little but not as much as my short bed.

So would it be better to do drop spindles and stock springs or do springs and keep the stock spindles. I'm not cutting any springs. Just not my thing. The thing that I am really not sure about is the rear. I don't think I would really want to take any leaf springs out. Does that leave me with putting a drop shackle on my only other option? I would just want a couple of inches of drop to level out the truck with the 2" drop front. Hope that all makes sense.
