Anyone use the Smooth Rider Leafs? There are not many options for a drop with leaf springs.

Chevy/GMC C10 / C15 ('66-'72) -4" drop (triple-leaf): $299.95 per pair *
(*2.25" width: this is a very rare item you won't find elsewhere)

Early Classics and Classic performance products both sell drop springs for 66-72;s.

You can use a 73 up flip kit and that will give you close to 6"

How about a flip kit? Any other thoughts on the best way to lower a 3/4 ton leaf rear end?

Western Chassis rocks. I had them on my 97 F150 and it rode better than stock, much smoother.
