Welcome to the forum

I don't know of anyone making a coilover conversion for the front of the '63-'87 trucks, aside from a Porterbuilt front suspension, Scotts Hot Rods, etc. If you are wanting to keep your current front suspension, take a look at this thread:

Had no idea about the porterbuilt or Scotts till now, very nice! and not a bad price for what it includes but still a little much for my budget, thanx for the info captainfab, do you think if I were too remove original coil springs and shocks, make brackets inside the original spring pockets to accept a coilover that it would work?

If you fabricate something like shown in that thread, it will work.
