DJM Suspension 3" Lowering Springs

I am looking to do a static drop and was wondering how recommended these front springs are... Anyone have any pictures? I was thinking maybe a 3/5?

Also, if I use drop spindles, do I have to convert to disc brakes in the front?

Most will recommend the ece 4/6 i think all around it's the perfect drop. As far as I know you will need to run disk brakes on any drop spindle

The ride on the 3 inch drop springs is pretty bad. You'd be happier to cut one coil off of your stock springs. That gets you the drop and a much better ride. It's free too.

All drop spindles require disc brakes.
