Default McGaughy's 2 4 drop

I know there is a drop thread but its kind of slow to get answers there sometimes.

does anybody have anything to say about the mcgaughys 2 4 drop with the springs, not the spindles? I want to get this drop and its in my price range, but not if it doesnt do the job. I can spring for the drop with the spindles in a few months, but the 360 tag at stylin trucks the one with the springs is a pretty nice price.

Let me know if you have any experience or advice.

Some people prefer spindles to springs b/c it retains the stock ride charecteristics. Shorter springs used to lower a vehicle tend to be stiffer and don't give the same ride quality.
