Suspension Question

I installed a 4/6 static drop kit on my truck months ago. I would like to drop it another 1-1.5 inches all around. What is the best way to do this?

Re: Suspension Question

Half a coil in the front and a 1" block in the rear. I'm in the same boat with my 66 and that is my plan. I'm hoping for 1/2 in the front and 1" in the rear.

Re: Suspension Question

Where would I look for the springs? I currently have 4" drop springs up front.

Re: Suspension Question

You need drop spindles up front.
Please post some pics of your truck and front suspension.
