I've been looking for dropped spindles for my truck with no avail. Has anyone dropped the front of their 3/4 ton 3" with new springs? There is a spring shop in town, and they could custom make them for me.
Is it possible to use Lift kit blocks to lower the rear if the axle is on top of the coil suspension? or would the rear end hit the frame.

most people who want to lower a truck get half tons.. hence, the kits are made for half tons.

I realize that they are made for 1/2 tons, and not 3/4 tons. I am trying to make my 3/4 ton to look good even though it isn't a 1/2 ton. If I were to BUY a truck, you could rest assured it would be a 1/2 ton because of this. Would I need to notch my frame if I used 3" lift blocks in this application? Will custom lowered springs wreak havoc on my front end geometry?

Thanks for the input, I would like to lower it a bit, not one of those ground huggers, I still want to be able to drive it around.
Does anyone have pictures of a front end that has been lowered by springs alone?
