There are lowering shackles which lower the rear end 2" and level it out with respect to the front. I don't know of anything to allow you to go lower than that though...

Not to sound mean, but did you test drive it before you bought it?

If so, didn't you realize that the truck sat a little high?

I woulda checked that first...
