For the fronts, I ordered and put in progressive springs...HUGE POSITIVE DIFF., no sag, better ride by far! In the rear I put in progressive 442s and lowered it 1.5 inches....MUCH better!!!! I would do shocks, not lowering bolts in the back...you will be a happy boy...Good luck. Front springs were 75 bucks and the rears 380 bucks at dennis kirk. 1 hour to install fronts, 2 hours for rear...plus beer.

Progressive gas monotubes up front, Shotgun shock on the back. It's the only way to go for the "cool look", ride, comfort, performance and safety.

I have since dropped the front 2" and put an 80 spoke 21" wheel with no clearance problems and no scraping yet!
