Groundforce sells a rear-only set of drop springs. I think it is a 2" rear drop. Some members have also successfully cut about a coil to a coil and a half off the upper portion of the stock springs with similar results. I myself am about to try cutting the stock coils to see how it turns out and how the ride is affected.

That drop is only for 2wd.
