you can use a moog 5660 spring and cut 1/2 coil off. That will give you a 2" drop in the front.

i saw before that you cut a 1/4 of a coil off but did ou end up doing a half a coil?

Hotchkis has 2 inch drop rears but seemingly no fronts. I guess they assume guys are going with drop spindles in the front.

I also have tall lower ball joints so I only cut 1/4 could to drop it an inch. The ball joints drop it another 1/2". I let the car settle and then cut another 1/8 of a coil to get the stance I wanted. In the rear I have the 8.2 rear so the amount I cut off the spring won't be the same for a 7.5 rear to get a 2" drop.
