    I deal in old Indian motorcycles and this is new to me. I have a 1938 Ford Pickup all stock, old union pacific railroad truck in ratty original paint. Gonna keep it all original. Want to lower it though. What are your suggestions? And companies that offer the parts?

    Dropped axle up front. Reversed spring eyes and maybe a flatter arch rear spring.
