You don't need drop spindles for a 2" drop. Cut 3/4 of a coil out with a cutoff wheel (NOT a torch), file the end and paint. Reinstall, and the coil will pack down. You may have to cut 1/2" from the tops of the bump stops for clearance, but the geometry is nearly identical, and you won't weird out your alignment specialist when you have to get that done. If you drop the front 2", lower the rear about 3 1/2 to 4" for a good stance with blocks. Easy, weekend work.
