The rear coils can't be cut.
ECE sells up to a 6" rear drop spring.
Most other vendors sell up to a 5" drop spring.
Spindles are your best option for dropping the front of the truck.
Many companies make 6-lug rotors, if you decide to keep it 6-lug.
Just remember the oem steel "hubcap style" wheel built prior to 1971 will not work with dics brakes up front.
