I would have to agree about the fact that spindles are much better.

I guess it was more or a cost thing, since anything I decide to do will be a minimum X2 in price since I Live in Canada, a pair of springs is about 200-300$ where in the US it's about 99$ so figure drop spindles are about 250$ US wich translates into at least 500$. So by going with springs right now I can get the whole truck lowered along with an adjustable panhard bar and possibly relocate the shocks ( rear ) for the same price.
So more bang for the buck.

Besides at this point the truck will mostly be used on occasion when I am in town ( couple times a week during summer months). So as long as I can get the alignment correct then I'm happy.
