2/4 drop is a little low up front...

What type of truck? I'll probably be ordering some Bilstein 5100 shocks for the front and rear pretty soon. The only gripe I have with this new setup is the front suspension will "top out" on big, sharp drops. I have plenty of up travel but the springs are so stiff that it sags very little with the weight of the truck. I'm hoping some better shocks can help out with this since they tend to have slower rebound. We'll see. It's easy to live with though especially coming from being lowered.

Maybe you could get your hands on some crew cab front springs. Cut them down to an acceptable lowering height and go from there? They are definitely stiffer.

I don't think they're stiffer, I think they're longer.

You don't know!! I do know that the front of my truck is much stiffer riding than the rear of my truck. That's just that cajun knowledge in me though. I'll have to go back a few pages to see if you mentioned stock springs in your spring rate posts.
