I want to buy anything that will lower the front of my truck. 78 1/2 ton. I want the front to be 3- 3 1/2in. lower.
Thanks,
Michael

Have you thought about heating the coil springs?? It might not give you exactly what height you want, but its a heck alotta cheaper than buying dropped springs. I would just put some good shocks on it afterwards.

1FaastC10- Will those springs fit on an 85 1/2 ton? If so how much do you want for them?
