Sounds like a plan. Just remember these are old trucks with old springs. A 2 in. drop spring may only give you a 1.5 in. drop, as your truck may have 1/2 in. "Spring Sag" already. My front springs had a little over a 1/2 in. of sag. Make sure you're getting 3/4 ton springs for the correct engine, Small Block/Big Block.
