As far as I know, geometry won't work, you'll have to get a new set of beams.

Something along those lines.

You'd have to raise the beam pivot point, I don't have a 2wd to look at, but it is possible if there is enough room. How much are you trying to lower it?
the rear is easy, I'm doing air ride on my 4wd now.

I want the ride height at about 4 inches and once I'm aired out I want the body almost on the ground. Yes the rear was very easy. I've already C notched, 4 linked and bagged the rear.
just trying to figure out how to do the front.
