1" Front Drop (2" coils)???

I know i could do a search, but its probably not that hard a question for you guys.

Who sells the cheapest, but good quality 1" front drops? (2" springs)

Possible good deal on some Belltech's over at NHTOC, but just wanted to shop around a little and figured you guys would know best.
Already have 2" shackles, so just need the front springs

And one last question, is that all i need to drop the front? I'm gonna go with bilsteins when i do the swap, but anything else i'll need, besides alignment?

Thanks

Josh, Mark has the big three for under $150 everyday, but I would go with Stan’s (Ruslow) springs, and that way you can tailor them to what you need.

Aight, if i go with the Ruslow spring then, what spring rate should i get? i know squat when it comes to that stuff. I'm not looking for the truck to handle on rails or anything, the stock feel is fine with me i guess, so i don't want it too rough.

And they'll give me a 1.75 drop over stock SVT springs? might end up being a little too far. my valance only clears the driveway ramp now with about 2" I'd hate to drop the front that far and one day scrape the ***** outta my valance that was my main reason for only going with a 1" net drop.

thanks for the info, and any further info

i think you should probably get 850 or 950.

but if you really want it to ride like its on rails get 1100. i've heard they make the L feel like a BMW M5


also if you only have 2", i wouldn't lower it at all.

well i've got another secret mod that is hopefully gonna happen soon, and if its gonna look right at all, it needs at least a 1" front drop. i might do the JLP 3" shackles too, still on the fence about that one though, gotta find out what is the true amount they actually drop the truck
