I will aslo need to re-do the bench seat in the front, and put a new carpet kit in it, that is what I have planned as of now, any suggestions on the lowering, and any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

First things first.... beautiful truck! That is such a great looking color and such a solid SWB.

IMO... look into the 4.5/6" drop and upgrade to disc brakes up front. Check out my build thread (Project Blank Slate - in my signature below my post) for the complete install of the 4.5/6" drop; there's not c-notch required and would make that thing sit just right.

Here's a quick preview of where I see your truck headed...

Rallys vs. 20's...
