82 GMC 1500 front drop

[mudgutsandglory]

hey all,
i just picked up a new daily cruiser, 82 GMC Sierra 1500 longbox, 350/TH350. i had to pick up something cause the 307 in my 70 popped like a zit and i was stuck between building my 383 and just buying something else. i happened on this thing by luck, its an old mans truck, but he kicked and some kid got it and deathed the original mill, so it has a pretty fresh 350 in it. i have drove it alittle and it runs good, but it handles like @$$! i have already decided to do an axle flip in the back, and add a sway bar. so how far do i have to drop the front to level it out after the flip out back?? can i drop it enough with spindles? i want to keep the front suspension geometry pretty close to stock, if possible improve on it...just figured id bounce this off yall and see what i get back!
later
