Ditto above. The "right" way is replacing with new leafs. Lowering via torsion bolts works, but you may need pricey camber kits and alignment depending on how much drop is needed. As Flash mentioned, Monroe Sensa Trac Load Adjusting shocks may be the perfect solution for you, especially at less than $100 per pair shipped. MANY satisfied users have gained a minimum of 1" rear lift although you will have a slightly firmer ride when the back is unloaded. Search 58617 on the forum, there are numerous threads and testimonials.
