Re: Rear leaf spring lowering options, ideas?

Since my truck will still be a working truck (trips to the lumber store, dump runs, dirt & gravel), does anyone have any idea about how much to start derating the load capacity with each spring removed? If I go this route, I would probably add helper airbags in the rear.

As for the front with drop spindles and a cut coil or lowering spring, will I need to change or adjust other components in the front due to a geometry change?
