55.2-59 Question about 73 Suspension Swap on 58

[JimDirt]

Thanks for all the detailed info everyone , I have a lot of research to do , it seems each thing has its advantages and disadvantages to ponder , so not sure what way to go at this point

As far as going the "clip" route , its just a option right now , as I would like to get the stock stuff working better , which will most likely end up being a CPP box , and some form of OEM GM column , (hopefully the old steering wheel will work with any GM column) , but still not sure what to do with lowering the truck , as I only want 1"-3" from where it is , nothing major , which is why I figured removing just a couple of the multiple springs front/rear would get me that without adding other issues , but its sounding like that might not be the thing to do ....... just seemed like a simple way to achieve a slight drop without needing to replace everything just to gain a slight drop ......hmmmmmm .....

Well at least now I have plenty of possibilities to look into and maybe use some , or a combo of things to accomplish my goals without breaking my minimal budget funds

Hopefully I can figure something out now with all this added information everyone provided .... Thanks again .......
