static drop on 1950 chev truck

[c10 custom]

Hi everybody i have a 1950 chev truck and i am wanting to lower it as much as possible i have a mustang 2 front suspension with 2 inch drop spindles i have 15 inch rims on it but it is still sits to high i want it real low in the front end any sugestions on what to do i thought maybe cutting the coil springs 2 inches i was also wondering can i lower the cab a little to make it have a lower stance in the front any ideas on this would be appreciated thank you

If you go and cut the coils you could get the drop you want but if you do it wrong you could mess up your ride and be buying new springs. You could try that though. Its my opinion to forget about lowering the cab. You'd be opening a big can of worms. You'd have to raise the floor in the cab, then the bed to level it out to the cab, then the radiator support and front clip. That's going to be a ton of work. Honestly, you best bet may be to upgrade your mustang II kit to air ride and run bags. Its going to be a bit more costly but you will get what you want without a ton of work. Most Mustang II kit manufacturers have the parts to upgrade their kits to bags.

This is coming from a guy with a static drop.
