Default Dropping a '08 Sierra HD?

Anyone know if there is a kit yet to drop down a '08 2500 HD? I've looked through the usually sites (DJM, Belltech, etc) and couldn't find one. I would like a 2"/4" drop if possible.

That's what I may end up doing. DJM has some stuff, but I don't think I want to drill out my hangers....not yet, at least.

In Street Trucks Magazine a few months ago the had a 3500 dually droped to lay frame. If you look up the modifying shop its dun deal customs, and they have a whole series of pictures of the conversion.

In the pictures they clearly show them using drop spindles. McGaughys brand I believe due to the scrip on the side.

Plus you could also crank down the torsion bars, and I've heard that last generations keys work to in this model.

It still has the same suspension as 06-Up so any kit from those will work.

As the '06 and up heavy duties? Someone has front drop arms, I believe, and hopefully the rear hangers are similar. Thanks.
