i was wondering if i can lay the front down without drop spindles. and if i can how big of rim can i do it with?
yes,but spindles make life much easier. We have a member on here with 24s on his truck,and a few with 20-22" wheels who have little to no issues.
Just be prepared to cut and relocate stuff.
You might want to browse the threads in the Suspension forum to get some ideas,or check out the Projects/Under Construction forum as well. These will have lots of photos of guy's builds and lots of input and troubleshooting.

Welcome to the site!
If you want to run anything bigger than an 18" wheel then I would start thinking about spindles....Like Mikey said they will make your life a bit easier!

Anything over an 18" I would recommend spindles, will make it alot easier. It can be done without spindles with larger rims, but requires alot more cutting.
Once you swap over to spindles,you need to use at minimum a 17" wheel to clear them...a 16 can be used,but requires shaving of the bottom of the spindle to clear the inside of the rim.
both of my truck dont have spindles on 17" and lay nice and flat on the ground (one more than the other but a 2.5" BD helps)
