I have a '87 Value Van that I need to lower, on the cheap.
When I try to find coil springs to lower the front or schackles for rear, the search comes up blank I think the thang is just kinda obscure... though I believe it is simply an aluminum box on top of a Chevy P3500 Chassis.
So I'm thinking of cutting one coil off the springs, and having my machinist extend the stock schackles 2.5"
My questions are, is there any reason that plan won't work? and, if not, are all '87 full size dually pickups the same 3500 chassis, thus enabling a better coil solution?
MANY THANKS
