I have a 2017 Ram crew cab sport 1500 4 wheel drive. I would like to lower it 2 inches in front and 4 inches in back. I did a drop on 2000 Ram 2 wheel drive but wasn't pleased with it and went back to stock. There are so many kits available. I don't want a kit that bottoms out or changes any driving characteristics either normal or high speed. What have you used and any problems or concerns? I have stock 20 inch rims and tires. What do you think is the best complete kit that would be trouble free and if a kit is available to achieve this, what is brand and part # and what is the best price? I know I've asked a lot of questions but I do my own work and am 75. If I do this, I don't want any problems or have to do it twice or go back to stock. Thanks in advance.

2 wheel drive 2" drop spindles bolt onto a 4X4 and allow you to keep everything factory on the front.They do move the front wheels out roughly 3/8" on each side,just throwing that idea at you. My 4X4 is dropped using 2 wheel drive drop spindles that have been narrowed 0.60" per side,and cut down factory R/T springs on the rear.Ignore the grill,i didn't like the factory Sport grill,so it's had a grill swap.
