    I'm starting to pile up parts and want to get my truck a little lower, just have 3" blocks on the back which i want to get rid of. It rides like $hit, My truck is currently my daily driver so i'm pretty sure i don't want to bag it right now, at least not the front, i have thought of doing a simple set up in the back. So what components would give the best ride on a static drop? spindles,control arms,torsions crankd,leafs,coil overs? i'm looking to get a conservative 4/5 drop

    I'm running drop spindles and control arms. They work great. That'll give you about 5" drop in front.

    As for the rear, I'm running 3" blocks also. Truck's ass is garbage. Go with drop leafs. I keep hearing good things about them.

    I'm also running drop spindles, the ride is great up front.

    I know Belltech makes drop leafs, stylintrucks.com has 'em.
