spindles or coils
Please help me out. I want to do 2"/4 drop.. Nothing to wild as I will be driving it daily. I see both kits out there. The Coils seem more economical, as I want to replace them anyways. But how about ride, durability and performance? What should I choose, keeping budget in mind. Are 2" drop coild hard on the balljoints etc. THANKS

I did a 2" 3" drop on my 71 swb with springs and shocks, had a shop align it, no problems, love the way it handles with front and rear sway bars!
I should add, I installed new lower ball joints at that time and this was about 35K ago, still no problemo.
