The only way I could think of was to go to a custom spring shop and have new springs made to your spec. You could possibly drop it 1/2-5/8" by removing the overload spring on the bottom.

bass is right... you can remove the overload spring in the back to drop it some, you will decrease your hauling capacity though...
