Lowering suspension???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Wuz up chevy fans, I have a 71 fleedside longbed that I am bringing to life. I plan to lower it with coil springs 3" in the front, 4" in the back w/panhard and shock relocators. I was just wondering if there would be a clearance problem with the truck? Should I also add 2 1/2" lowering spindles or will this also cause a problemo. Also would there be a clearance problem, and or would it look good, if I added 17" rims in the front, and 18" rims in the back, or should I go 17" all around? Thanks!
