Little lower c10

Back 20 years ago when I bought my C10 I went w/Early Classic Enterprises lowering kit for the front, dropped spindles, springs and shocks I believe as low in the front as I could go at that time, in the front. I purchased lowering leafs for the back. Since I have purchased new/used tires and rims, 20" front 22" rear, I feel the need to lower it a little bit again. Any advice, short of bagging, as to drop it a couple of inches. Thanks in advance.

Modify the front frame (suspension area) w/a Z-cut or notch & then raise the factory x-member so it's higher in relation to the rails. Shackles & hangers for the rear leaf set-up.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Not really interested in cutting the frame at this time, may run the summer w/the way it is and go w/Porterbuilt over the winter.
