The question is do u want it lowered or leveled? I done Djm suspension 3 or 4inch drop 8in the front and I believe when it was all said and done the back was lowered 6+ on 22" rims it was a pain to get it level cause I am running stiff leaf springs in the rear to reduce axle wrap! Of you are wanting it level you can start with lowering shackles and see where it gets you.
