I would avoid them if you are 4wd as that is too much lift for the CV joints to take. 2" is the max lift you can go with 4wd.

The aftermarket torsion keys are supposed to move the adjustment range up, or down, a few inches. You can still obtain stock heights with either, but you can go farther in the other direction also.

I bought lowering keys for about $90 from Total Performance. I can adjust mine from right around stock, just over, to 3-4" under easily. My choice is around 2-2.5" down, but both keys and bolts are in a good mid point. They are very good if you settle on a height far from stock, and stay there. Good luck,

2.5" down sounds good to me.
