i lowered my 1500 with a McGaughy's 2/4 drop...the kit i got uses the factory shocks (buy new shocks, dont use factory with lowering kit) and a rear flip kit. the shocks i'm looking at buying when i get some money are the Belltech nitro drop (i think thats what they called).....the kit was pretty easy to do, i did it in my driveway on a friday in a matter of a couple hours...good luck and post some pics when it's done

RH, I take it you came this conclusion all on your own? Assuming you have never seen a hauler for race cars, show rides or maybe a badass boat.
