Re: cut BBC springs

I read the suspension thread, about switching control arms to add caster, I have 3 miles of dirt road I have to drive everyday, so I do need a certain amount of ride quality, but I want it to handle well in the turns, so it looks like I'm at that that compromise between all at handling, and ride quality
the springs I have are half ton BBC springs, I was thinking take a coil out of them, and a drop spindle, then a heavier sway bar, some frame cross bracing, relocate the gas tank to the rear, and relocate the rear hangers
