Ok, Call me crazy but I like not having power steering in my 68 and I also like the drum brakes all the way around. I think it's great when I get in the truck I feel like I'm driving a real classic truck.

With that being said, I'd like to lower the front of the truck more than 3 inches that the factory geometry allow. I'd like to keep the stock spindles and stock drum brakes. I see that DJM sells the upper and lower control arm kit that will allow me to run their 5 inch drop springs and use my stock spindles and stock drum brakes.

Is anyone else running this set up?

MOST IMPORTANTLY... Is there anyone else that offers this set up besides DJM? Looking for options and input please.

I appreciate the help.
