Do I need one?

[Already Gone]

I am planning to do a 3 1/2" front (2 1/2" ECE drop spindle with 1" drop spring and I already have 1 1/4" sway bar installed ) drop and a 5" rear drop with new coils and ECEs Super Track Bar and shock relocator kit with new shocks my 72 long box big block truck.. I am running 235/70R15 tires on my truck now wich are 28.2 inches high and will eventually be running 255/60R17's on 17x8's which are 29 inches high. I've been reading all the banter on here about the drop crossmember especially ECE's and would like some opinions from you guys and girls if should get or need the dropped crossmember with the proposed suspension mods for my truck. I dont like things hanging from under my truck and the holes in the crossmember for the exhaust pipes really appeal to me because I will be putting headers on the 396 as well. I was just on ECE's website and they have a special on that crossmember for 199.00 and Christmas isn't far away.
