You can also cut the front coils to get low, removing leafs in the back will work too but it will reduce your load carrying capability.
Just checked out your thread. Shame what happened to your ride.

There's some info on doing just the spring drop here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=705751.
