Easiest IMO is drop springs. You can find them if you look. Also there are several spring manufacturers that will build what you want. With drop springs you must take into account that your stock springs may have sagged over the years. A 4" spring may only net 3", which is what you want. Hope my input is of some help.

Thanks I appreciate your input, I only want 3” lowered, I’m going to be searching for the lowering leaf springs, I never thought of that since I only had the coil springs on my trucks
