what's the best way to drop a 48 ford pick up?

what is the best way to drop the front end on a 48 ford pick up. It has the original front beam.

 

Well, there are dropped axles available and I'm pretty sure I've seen that someone will drop your stock one.

I know i can by a new axle. I gess what i'm asking is what would be involved in droping the original axel? do I change spindels or do I heat it up.

Put a big block in it.

 

Drop axle and remove a couple of springs.

 

If you are going to remove the spring. remove the short one. The first time I found out the hard way not to remove the long ones. had the main spring break at 60 mph.

 

Reverse the eyes, is another option.
