You should only have 1 thread going at a time. It can get confusing.

Ridetech makes a coilover kit. I dont believe they offer a narrowed option though. You can go with the CCP modular spindles to get .5'' though.

The other option would be to go with any of the aftermarket full crossmember setups. Most will narrow the track width 1.5'' on each side. Modern steering, lighter, etc. Only issue is the cost.

Porterbuilt makes them, but you need their crossmember to keep the low ride height.
This will also center the front wheels in the wheel opening, which it looks like you need.

Look at this thread.

This is the lowest Porterbuilt ride height with coil overs.

I can tell you from first hand experience that GringoLoco’s truck rides and handles better than any stock frame static dropped truck that I’ve ever ridden in.
