Pulling the overload wont hurt anything
and maybe will get about .5 inch lower
The spring is an overload and works when overloading the suspension.
Mine has a 2/4 kit - and sits lower than I expected

I test fit some 22X10 Boyd's on my truck w/ 295-35-22's. Took it around the block and drove it. I had no trouble with rubbing and had full turn lock-to-lock. Didn't hit any highway cruizing though, so there might have been some rubbing at higher speeds. Not sure on that.
I would say 22X9 w/ 265-35--22s and a 4/6 drop. Shouldn't have a problem.

DJM 4/6, just lowers (no uppers.) Ride was excellent!!! The slightly taller sidewall really made a difference!
And this was still with the iron block motor, so it was about 3/4" lower than it is now.
I have a ghetto ***, in-the-dark pic. I'll have to see if I can get it scanned in somehow.

But I'll do what I can.
