should have opted for the 2003t spindles (require 17+ wheels) I think there is just no good way to drop it 2" with a spindle without giving up some wheel diameter. You could always do a 1" spring with it to give you a full 2". I can honestly say with my mcgaughys 2" spindle I got a full 2" drop and then some.

Sorry, but if you want it lower you are going to need a spring and or larger wheels.
