Welcome from Texas. On the springs, I would either not use the 1" springs with the spindles or put some 5" springs in the back instead of the 4". The way you were talking would put the rear up in the air too much in my opinion. If you go with 5" springs in the back you'll have to put an adjustable trac bar and shock relocators at least and would probably want to do a c-notch as well. As far as which company to buy springs from, Early Classic Enterprises seems to be the most popular. I'm waiting on my 4" rear springs from them as we speak.

Oh yeah, Where are the PICS?!
