    for a 2/4 kit i would recommend McGaughy's .... http://www.mcgaughys.com/chevyhighperformance1.html .... and i'll let this link explain why. it provides a great setup to later build upon if you choose to lower the truck even further.

    This is the first truck where I am going down rather than up - but I was thinking spindles in the front and a flip kit in the back.

    then in suggest McGaughy's 2" drop spindles for front, and for the rear you can pick what ever brand you want because they are all basically the same design for the rear. all you're really doing is paying for the name!
