What year is the truck? I researched this, this morning. I found a site that is very thorough on the parts and have good prices for the custom and OEM stuff. The site is LMC. The link is www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cc/t.asp?page=0 I just bought an '82 Silverado myself and doing much of the same you are, I assume. I would strongly recommend getting your wheels and tires on the truck first, and then lowering it. I went thru that thing b4. I lowered it first, then the wheel and tire set I originally wanted would not fit. However, the application that you want should be good, depending on the year, make, and model of the truck with respect to the drop. Email me direct if you want. trailertrashokc@hotmail.com  Good luck, bro.

You want 2 1/2in. drop spindals for the front and 4in. drop coils in the rear and a front sway bar if you don't have one. Spindals run about $225 and springs about $80. I have several parts trucks if you need anything.  tnchev@yahoo.com
