We like to run 1500lb front and 380lb rear springs with an 1-7/16" hollow front and a 3/4" solid rear sway bar. Get some control arms that give you around 9* of caster and -1.5* camber, and run shocks with a bunch of rebound. If you were doing a '63-72 the easy button would be our (Hotchkis) TVS kit. We'll be working on square-bodies this year so i might be able to help more in the near future.
This sounds like a good plan. Drop it, up the springs and sway bars and add good wheels and rubber. A 3- or 4-link rear suspension could help too, but is a bit more work. Look forward to seeing what you do with the truck.

Is this is the Dwight that is the Corvette genius that lives on Lake Fenton? I am a good friend of Dwight's brother in law. He has some amazing vehicles.
