Re: need some advice, (wheels and lowering)
I would do spindles and springs in the front. A flip kit and shackles in the rear. I just installed the Western Chassis 5-7 kit and was really impressed with the quality. Boss wheels only come with one backspacing per size. 8" wheels in the rear are going to tuck pretty far in. You might consider some 1-1.5" spacers back there. You will be able to tell more about the spacer after installing the wheels though.
