Re: 1956 Chevy 4" dropped axle with what springs?

a drop axle won't have anything to do with the springs riding on the bump stops. the drop axle raises the spindle in relation to the frame but leaves the axle in the same place with relation to the frame. lowering springs move the entire axle closer to the frame and thus lowering the vehicle that way.
