drop spindles up front and leafs in the back will be best. or coils in front block in rear.

taht will be the cheapest way but give you the worst ride. im 5/7 and i have pretty much no shocks in the front and air shocks in the back.

It would be better if you go with spindels if your just looking for a 2in drop in front. Cuz you wont need drop shocks. With Coils you will need drop shocks.

plus the ride wont change.

Other than an alignment, that is correct for a basic static drop. However, if any of your front steering or suspension parts are worn, now would be the time for replacment while you have it apart before the alignment.
