Lowering truck 2" out back

Has anyone done this? I hate the spacers up front (currently have) I'd like the truck to sit level so I am thinking it may be to my advantage to drop the truck two out back and go to stock ride height up front. Figure it may actually help the handleing and it would be a touch easier for my wife to get in and out of. My question is two part. If you did it, hwo did you do it? or what is the best way to drop it 2"?

GENROS this is done alot on trucks that pull goose neck or fith wheel trailers .its easy and does not efect the ride .i dont know if it gives 2" but it will give you the look you want.if you tow alot you might have to add air bags or timbrens to keep it from squating when loaded,because the truck will no longer be tail high.

I did the rear lowering and it works, looks great. I just got new spring pack bolts ( you can reuse the u bolts ) lowered about 1 3/4" rides good and you have less of a chance of death wobble because you increase the caster of the front end by lowering the rear. it took me about 1.5 hours.
