If you put on the helper springs on the front. It will work as a traction bar and drop it some where between .5 and 1 inch. I'm sure you are all looking for more than that but it may help. It's amazing what a inch looks likes

De-arching the spring is basically reshaping it to any height you
choose. A suspension shop can do this for you. The spring rate remains
the same as stock.

There is no room under the bed for a 2" shackle drop. To even get to 1 1/2" you would need to grind the bed somewhat.

i called streetbeat customs and they have 2x4 inch drop but thats alitle too much for what im looking for. i just want the rear to be even with the fronmt. and there kit cost 800 shipped which is too much for me right now. i ask most shops around here to see if they do that dearching and no ones does it. not yet at least.
m95 roadster. how many inch drop or whatever they call it did you do when you dearched your leaf's?

Call 4x4 shops. They'll know. I had mine dropped 2 1/2" rear and the front is 1".
I had the kit you were talking about and it sucked bad. Worst ride
ever! The drop was more like 4 1/2" rear and 1" front. The back sat a
lot lower than the front.
