i talked my dad into lowering his 1998 crewcab longbed 1 ton chevy:D

he wants 3" in the front and insists on spindles for the factory ride. who makes the best spindle that wont effect his turning radius etc.

also whats the best way to drop the rear end another 3" to keep it level. he already has 2" drop shackles on the rear.

3/5
Front:
1'' coil
2'' Spindle

back:
2'' shackle
3'' leaf
or 1'' lift shackle with 6'' flip kit.
he wont change the factory springs out. thats why he wants spindles
they dont have an application for a 1 ton in98
only 88 ext cab and dually and
75-91 1ton i think it was
no trying to be a punk i just never saw them for his application. and trying to help but cant find any myself either
i apologize i saw it started with 3/4 and looked no further. my bad. thats wierd that the same spindle can be used for 3/4 and 1 ton application.
once again i apologize:shake: you the man i bow down

interesting
heres a link to DJM's version, not sure but i think drop spindles on obs trucks don't decrease turning radius like some nbs drop spindles,
