Lowering a 53

[Ianrhall]

Just wondering about the best way to lower a 53 ford
The rear seems straight forward, 1-3" lowering blocks
At the front, I could
Fit lowering kit from butchscoolstuff-gives 2" drop, if that's too much I assume I could have the blocks machined?
Cut stock springs
Fit lowered springs
Fit Aerostar springs
I am only looking for 1-1/2" drop and want to maintain a good suspension(cut down new springs on my falcon and ended up with very hard ride!)

Thanks

Ian
