I've looked for them, and it appears that nobody sells dropped spindles that use your original drum brakes.
If you go with dropped spindles, you'll have to convert to front disc brakes....

Dropped spindles would interfere with the design of the backing plate, hence the inability to find any.
If you want to keep your drums, either due to the expense of a disc swap, or authenticity, just use lowering springs. There is plenty of travel in the suspension design to allow their use and still maintain a decent ride.
