Need help

Looking at installing a 4/6 drop on my 1999 reg cab short bed. Which of the lowering kits would be better?

I was looking at the spindle and spring kit for the front. Or the DJM kit with the lowering a-arm that uses the stock spring.

Which of these would be better or is there a better way to go. No bagging.

Thanks

Re: Need help

I would vote for the spindle /spring kit up front....not knowing the specs on the app, I am guessing..(2 1/2" on the spindle, & 1 1/2" on the spring)? This should get you in a good spot, for clearance & still align the front, with no issues on the drop spring? At the rear, are you looking at an axle flip/C notch? Longhorn
