Here is a post on S10 spindle conversion. You could do this and get dropped spindles but I think doing the torsion bars may be easier. Just my opinion.

There is a post somewhere about reindexing the torsion bars (this will lower the front without a hard ride and it is a cheap) that has a link to an isuzu website but I can not find it now. If anyone else knows the post please link it here.

That s10 conversion was using the s10 rotors only, no spindle swap involved...

I don't think lower with the torsion bars will affect the ride much. Should be OK

u can just adjust the torsion bars for a lower stance but the ride will be kinda soft since the bars won't have as much tension on them. The harsh ride would come in when you raise it and put more tension on them. You can reindex to adjust the ride but it can be a real pain from what i read about it to get the bars in and out

The only practical way to lower the front is via the torsion bars.

Coil overs + welding + designing... It's not worth it to me.

It's just a cool looking mini truck thats fun to drive... not a Lotus.
