may lower 1-2in

I'm thinking about lowering Jenn about an inch or two. My question is, is there an easy way to lower a 2wd like adjusting the t-bars on a 4wd?

PS. I hate screwing around with coils.

Lowering spindles, lowering springs, block for the rear axle... There should be a bunch of options out there...

Why go down? Put Jenn up in the air. I'm sure she would enjoy a better view up there.

She is 2wd... pointless to lift... If I do anything, she's gonna go low...

The easist would probably be to lower the tbar and get lowering shackles.

Nope..2WD's don't have torsion bars....drop spindles is the best way for the front, you won't suffer any loss in ride quality that way.Blocks for the rear are sufficient for a 2 inch drop.

Oops my bad, Yeah spindles would'nt sacrifice ball joint wear so in general it would be better but unfotunately cost more.

Spindles are the most expensive part of the drop. About $300. Springs and drop blocks are not too expensive. Probably need drop shocks too. Not sure on a 4-door.
