that makes more sense... springs in the rear and spindles up front.... kinda like a suspension lift but opposite... damn tired right now... but that makes a lot of sense

The only drop parts available for the 03+ is the springs. Everything else is custom. Just do the belltech springs with one turn cut, for 3.5 drop. But with anything more then 2" you'll run into camber issues. Also transmission crossmember will scrape so watch where you go.

Ross, you should just add a tank and compressor to make your oem bags adjustable.

And the lowering god chimes in! After a shit ton of research I'm going belltech springs since eibach is only 1.6 and 1.8 (barely unnoticeable for the money) and belltech will just flat out go lower. My question now is will the stock struts hold up pretty good or SHOULD I replace them? I'd like to keep pretty good ride quality if possible
