To lower it correctly you will need dropped I-beams. You can get them from AIM and JDM. A couple of hundred bucks. Or you could do a body drop. Measure your springs with no weight on them and then buy a set a few inches shorter. Try JBG and Summit for springs. And you could always heat your springs to lower it! Ha!

I am also looking to lower my 75 but I am not able to find anyone that has lowering kits. I know that I will have to drop the I-beams. I was thinking that I would like to put air bags on it so when I tow I can keep the truck's rear end level. I would like to do all of the work myself. I am having a hard time finding info on how to do it and what I need. Any help would be graet. I was trying to find a lowering magazine or book that I could use but no luck.
