Ok, so I had this thread up, but I guess it got deleted when the site when down but oh well, here it is again.

I want to lower the front of my 54 Chevy... atleast 4 inches, preferably 6. But the thing is, Im on a budget and I also want to keep the frame fairly stock.

So first I thought of just cutting the coils, but that will only give me a few inches at most.

Then I thought of a mustang 2.. but like I said, Im on a budget.

After that I had a crazy idea of removing the stock a-arms and cross member, and replacing it with a straight 6" drop axle, radius rods, panhard, ect... (speedway sells everything I needs for this)

I'd like everyones opinion on this, and what would be some other options to lower. And please take note: this car will just be a driver/cruiser with a 250 engine...so I wont need heavy duty/racing/polished stainless parts. Just something that will work.

Thanks.
