1 inch drop advice needed for a stock Task Force

[MiraclePieCo]

When I remove leaves I start with the shortest ones because they make the least changes to handling characteristics. Typically I remove every other leaf until I get the desired ride height. The leaves are about 1/4" thick, so removing just two would give you 1/2" drop and with the added spring sag should be pretty close to your desired 1 inch.

Bear in mind that my experience is with Model A Fords and I've never done it with a TF Chevy but I assume the principle would be the same.
