A Few Updates/Progress

hey everyone as you might have seen i just bought this 73 c10 with 454 about two weeks ago. Well yesterday i went and painted the front grill flat black along with the headlight bezels. I also painted the 454 emblem GM Bright Red along with my c10 trim on the side of the fenders. I also cut 1.25 inches off of each front coil. its sitting about 3/16 of an inch off the bump stops. it rides great and handles much better. it also hooks up much better i guess because the weight transfer has been slightly altered.. Next plans are for a junkyard hood and driver door, 235/60/15 tires all around with flat black rallys, and a tow hitch for my boat as well as 4 inch dropped leafs.

Question for everyone, what exactly is done to achieve 4 " dropped leaf springs? can i do this my self?
