Can you guys give me some info on why to go this route or why not to go this route. I understand ifs and all that rides so much better. But for a weekend cruiser im leaning toward the axle and springs. I appreciate all your guys help

A dropped axle and or lowering springs work well. I drove miles and miles like that. On a weekend cruiser, a daily driver, it's all good. If you want to autocross it, I would say to go IRS.
