74 3/4 ton frame 58 apache drop needed

Alright I just picked up a 1958 Apache and it has a 1974 3/4 ton frame under it. I would like to drop the front 6" and the rear 6". The rear is really not the issue cause I am going to relocate the springs to the inside of the frame so I can run what ever kit with that. I am making the truck into a prostreet. Is there a kit that will drop the front that much. Right now it has a 350 in it and it sits as if I had the engine out of it. I am going to put a 454 in it so it should add a little more weight to it.

You could get 2.5drop spindles with bag's, droping the front end 6" total with spring's will be hard if not impossible to align the front end from what I've read. If you can afford it check out Porterbuilt front dropmember that will bring the front end down.
