Looking for a 1" drop springs to go with the 2.5" drop spindles I'm getting ready to pick up.

Looking for 4" rear drop springs.

You can always cut 1/2 a coil off of your stock front springs and save some $$. A full coil is about a 2" drop.

I’ve been thinking about it. I’ll be running ’83 C10 control arms, spindles and steering, I may just cut the stock springs and see how it goes. I really don’t want a bouncy ride, this will be my kid’s truck.

I think I may have found a deal on some 2.5” front spindles. We’ll see how that pans out.

Thanks for the link. Was hoping for used, read CHEAP, since this is definitely a budget build.
