New springs cheapest/easiest for drop? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to do either a 2/3 or a 2/4 drop on my 68 C10. Are new springs the least-expensive and easiest way to accomplish this?

Thanks.

Yes, springs are much cheaper than spindles. In the back, if you have coil springs, it's pretty much the only option to lower the back.

Sweet. Thanks.

i could not use an aftermarket front sway bar when i dropped my front 2", so watch out for that.

How cheap you want? I'll sell my old front cut, rear heated springs, 2-4 drop for 45 to your door.
They are even, but definately used

I still have them, but I would need to send them to a business address for that price. They are even. I would also say they are about a 3-5 drop and the ride w/ my new springs isnt much different.
