Lower ride
Say, I've got an '82 F150 and I would like to lower the whole thing 2" front and rear. I should be able to get the shackles on the rear leafs easy enough, but where do I get the parts and how do I go about dropping the front? I assume that I somehow need dropped spindles and shorter coils; do I need to get shorter shocks? What else do I need?

Try AIM. They offer drop Ibeams, springs, and shocks. http://www.truckn.com

LowDown is right.
You need droped I-beams on an '82. AIM is a good place to look. Buy an issue of Truckin' magazine and you will find the stuff you need to lower your truck there.
