Least Expensive way to drop a 69 C10 Stepside?

[kedmunds]

Hello Everyone,

Well, we started the Father/Son project on our 69 C10 StepSide. We have owned the truck for 3 days now and we have already decided to drop it a bit from it's original height.

Would anybody please provide us some suggestions on what the least expensive way there is to drop the truck (without using airbags)? I have been reading that a 4" drop in the front and a 6" drop in the back looks great and handles well. Is that what you would suggest? What would you suggest?

If so, how do we do it? i.e. Drop Spindles in the front and different springs on the front and back? My son looks up to me and wants to learn from me, but I honestly don't have a clue on the best approach for this and that is why I joined this forum. You guys seem to want to help each other, so here I am. Help? Please?

Thank You,
Kirk Edmunds
