Spindles or springs?
I have a 64 c10 that I am working on. I have a 74 front end I was using the suspension pieces from and was wanting a mild drop....2-3 inches or so. With just a mild drop like this and seeing as how I will have to be buying new springs anyway would I be better off just buying drop springs and keeping the stock spindles or going with drop spindles and buying some new stock height springs. I know money wise the springs make more sense. Also any certain brand springs or drop spindles you guys would recommend? I have Bell Tech spindles on my 75 Jimmy but have heard good things about Mcgaughey (sp?). Any input or ideas are appreciated.
Brad

Drop springs work fine for 2 to 3 inch drop.
Summit brand springs are actually reboxed Ground Force brand and very cheap too.
