best/cheapest way to lower front 87 coils

[stump]

i have a 87 swb c10 i was gona do flip kit in the rear and get 2-3 inch drop springs.. what would be the next step to get the front a little lower? the drop spindles i see cost over 300$ and i cant really afford that at this time..any other way?

If you are doing a flip in the rear, you are going to want atleast a 3'' front drop for sure. I've seen 3'' springs but they really aren't recommended. You will have alignment issues and a harsher ride as well as the need for shorter shocks. Spindles will get you done 2.5 or 3'' depending on brand and you can then add maybe a 1'' or 2'' spring to get it where you want. I think 3'' spring is pushing it.

where would i get a good deal on some spindles?

on e-bay you can get mcgaughys 2.5" drop spindles for $218 and summit has 2" drop coils for $83 plus tax and handling comes out to about $100 bucks

Thats not a bad deal at all, then you wouldn't have alignment issues..
Or you can do what we all do to our rides at first, is cut a coil or so off to get the drop you want... cheap, easy, bumpy but it works
