Re: 1982 c10 lowering
Drop spindles up front with drop springs.
Flip kit in the rear. You will also need a set of "quality" drop shocks. I prefer a 4/6 drop on the 73-87 trucks. Doing the entire job without "cutting" might be tough. Look around in the "Projects and Build" section of the 73-87 area. You should be able to visualize the drop you are after. What size wheels are you going to use?

Re: 1982 c10 lowering
If you want 3/5, I'd just use a 3 inch drop spindle in the front (Belltech makes a great one) and flip kit in the rear.
