Is there a good write up for doing a drop for GMCs with leaf spring?

I searched but didn't find anything. All these pictures of nice static drops have me drooling.

Depends on how much drop you're looking for.

Just level it out? Maybe a 2" drop spindle (converts to disc brakes) and lowering blocks or shackle kit (depending on if the spring is over or under the axle).
