I like your ideas anotherblacks10. How much would you think the cost would come to for the Bell-Tech hardware: 2" spindles, 1"spring. I have my mind made up on that stuff /\. Would it be worth it to do the drop leaves in the back instead of getting 3" blocks and pulling a leaf. Do they make 4" drop leaves? Thanks again. Does Bell-Tech make drop leaves?
The spindles are a definite cause you're gonna want them later in case you want to bag your truck. the best place for coils is summit or jcwhitney (if you want to pay full price). What i did both times i changed my coils is I looked through the classifieds in the for sale forum and got them for $50 shipped. The spindles i bought from summit cause they're heavy and i didn't want to pay shipping and summit has free shipping on anything under 150lbs. The spindles will be around $150 and they do charge you $7.95 handling but it's better to pay $8 than $40 for shipping a set of spindles.
For the rear. A 4" drop in the rear, a 3" block and remove a leaf.
a 3" block from summit is like $27 and that includes the hardware.
There are companies that make a 4" dearched lowering leaf and those would cost you around $150 + shipping which can be a lot since they weigh around 30lbs a piece. Your best bet

They have 4" leafs for $59 a set and shipping is like another $40 or so which comes out cheaper than any other place i've looked at leafs online. They're a very reputable company as well so don't be afraid to order from them.
Either way you go on the rear setup you would need to run drop shocks which are around $32 a piece and i would recommend you get as well from summit cause the entire package you purchase ie; spindles, blocks and shocks will only cost you the $7.95 handling fee for shipping all of that.
Good luck
