Drop Twin I-Beams

Any recommendations/experience with AIM or DJM drop twin I-beams for my '71 F-250? I would like to drop the front about 3 inches. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks, J.M.K.

Dropped I-Beams aren't the only way to lower your truck, a Mustang II IFS kit will lower it as much as you want, plus improve the stopping and handling power greatly. As far as which I-Beam is best, not sure. Just looking at them, I guess I would prefer the I-Beam style over the tubular one. Don't even remember who makes which now.....
