dropping a converted half ton
I am goin to convert my 3/4 ton 2wd truck to a half ton with leaf springs in the rear. I got lower control arms, spindles and coils of a 81 (my truck is a 70), a 12 bolt rear out of a 71 comaro and a muncie m-21 trans. If I cut about a half a coil off the front springs and take the lower to leafs off my rear and use about a 28" in tall tire how far would this drop my truck and would the be a big wheel gap in between the tops of the tires and the bottom of the fender/ qauter panels?
