I need 4x4 for the occasional midwest winters and to climb the steep grades on my property, but don't need all of the ground clearance. You mentioned installing Excursion springs. I'm assuming this would be 2x4 EX springs and not 4x4, right? If you know of anyone that has their stock springs available, I'm interested.
No, it would be 4x4 Ex. springs....they are the only ones with leaf springs. They give the Ex. softer springs since it's a family SUV. As Monsta mentioned...they will get you as low as possilbe...short of riding on the bumpstops all the time.

4x2s are just like the 4x2 SDs, coil springs and twin i-beam.
