    Pep boys has 3" lowering blocks. Get those for the rear. Its the cheapest and easiest. There are also drop leafs but tbat gets pricier

    For the front you can do 2" drop spindles, ball joint flip and cranked torsions. Or both. And if u can find some drop control arms u can do that too.

    Did you try searching thru the forums? The topic have been covered TONS of times

    Yah search button up there on the top right next to the new posts button is your best friend. There are numerous ways some easy, some harder. Also take into consideration if your even gonna bag it or make it faster as this will aid in actual parts needed cause you dont want to buy stuff twice. But yah local auto parts store should be able to get drop block for yah so everything Jetas mentioned is legit and basic!

    what are your goals as far as the truck? what do you want it to look like and are you planning to do different wheels?

    if need be, i also do drop trucks here in San Diego (if you wanted it done).

    there are lots of options to drop. some methods cheaper than others, some easier than others, but just about every option out there can get you anywhere you wanna go with your truck. :waytogo:
