I did a rough country 2/5 kit, which was suuuper cheap at $200. I ended up keeping the rear 5" drop, but changed to front lowering spindles and beltech struts to drop it an extra inch, making it a 3/5 drop.

4/7 will be easy to do!
belltech drop struts up front set at 2"
drop spindles at 2" either DJM, Ground Force or Belltech
and flip kit for the rear, either DJM or Belltech
I dont have any pics for you however theres a "lowered pic thread" somewhere in this gmt900 section

Here's my Rough country 2/5, before I changed the front to spindles and lowering struts.
