'90 chevy want to lower it 2" all the way around?
'90 chevy want to lower it 2" all the way around?
what is the best method of doing this? springs in the front? or spindles? if I go with springs...do I need to get new shocks? if I go with spindles do I need to remove some of the lower control arm? I have the "Sport"..or "Super sport"wheeels on here. and in the back it just seems I need a new shackel kit to lower it. do I need new shocks in the rear? do I need to do anything to the rear about the change of the pinion angle? or it's not enough to matter?

Drop springs usually require drop shocks.
Drop spindles up front will not. I suggest drop spindles and a set of drop shackles.

For the first time ever, I don't agree with Keith. I'd do drop springs in front rather than spindles.
Reasons: -You'll likely need to trim your control arms with spindles, not with springs. -The spindles widen the front stance which makes it look funny when running equal tires and wheels front and rear. -You can buy a set of springs and shocks for what spindles cost. My own daily driver is an 89 model with 2 inch DJM springs in the front.
