Default 4/4 drop possible?

i travel to car shows setting up as a vendor for my powder coating business. i stumbled on 4 inch lowering control arms for cheap and bought them. Problem is,doing a 6 inch drop, with a bed full of supplies and future pulling a trailer, its not gonna be pretty.

that being said, i'd be comfortable with a 4/4 drop (currently with 2 inch shackles). Has anyone done this? whats the cheapest/easiest way of doing this?

Shackle and hanger in back and springs and spindles in front. Or control arms if you have them and want to use them.

Its going to sit with the rake of a stock one but a little lower.
