yah i myself have the same dilema, i want to go another 3 in front (in addition to the r/ts inch) and 4 in back. i think what you need to do is get djm 2 inch lower control arms, hotchkis or belltech 3 inch leafs and if you need it 1 inch block. that would be the best way because you dont have to drill your hangers out, and will allow you to go back to stock easier if you cant tolerate the ride. your shocks can be used again, so dont buy new ones, but if you want to buy bilsteins. this drop should work and look great with your stock wheels and tires also. i myself am planning on goin either 3 inch a-arms from djm or 2 inch arms and 2 inch hotchkis springs in front, 3 inch hotchkiss leafs and 2 inch blocks in back. your ride shouldnt be that bad, and it will handle a lot better.....hope this helps...ken

I agree, I have an 01 R/T and have Western Chassis 2" lower control arms and hotchkiss rear leafs the control arms will give about 2 1/4" drop and the leafs are adjustable from 3 1/2 to 4 1/2". I also run stock shocks, ride is great but when bottoming out the front end the wheels will rub a little.
