Have Hotchkis 2"/4" Drop, Want to go lower.
I have a Hotchkis 2"/4" drop kit. What would it take to go an inch or two lower in the front and rear? Is it as easy as dropped spindles in the front and blocks in the rear?

You could do spindles in the front and shackles in the back. However, if you do go lower in the back, you'll probably want to notch the frame. A guy I know did this and he said he kept bottoming out.

But yeah get the spindles for the front and drop shackles for the rear, that will ove you a 4/6 drop and yes you will want to natch your frame.
