Stupid lowering question...

[farside847]

Sounds like the best way to lower a 71 C10 is to use new spindles
in front. How hard is this to do? Will I need any special tools, or can
everything be done with normal wrenches/sockets/etc? Will I need to
bleed the brakes or anything?

Also, when doing a 4" coil drop in the back, do the shocks need to
be replaced or can stock height ones be left in place?

thanks!
