Lowering the 58

I have my 58 up on jack stands and I am waiting on bushings for all four springs. I plan on doing a poor man lowering. By that I mean putting the front axel and the rear end on top of the springs. Does anyone have a few photos of a truck with this lowering? I am intertrested in pictures of under the truck. Or can you link me to a site the does? If I can see it I can figure it out. I know I will need longer u bolts, I plan to take that measurement when I have everything in place.
