Gathering parts for drop and front suspension rebuild... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I used new replacement front springs from ECE for my 2.5" spindle drop front & 4" spring drop in the back.
Once the front springs settled out I ended up adding an additional 1" drop block in the rear to get the 1" rake front to back I was looking for.
