06' 3500 Megacab. Lowering rear

I really dont want to raise the front to level the truck because I bought the 2 wheel drive so my daughter and mother-n-law could get in easier and raising it would not make sense. I use the truck to haul tractors and various trailers for our farm so I need to keep the ability to haul heavy loads but I want to get the back end down more level with the front.

What is the easiest way to lower the back down without loosing my towing capabilities?

Thanks.

It appears from all I have read, there are only two options.... Air bags for the rear and remove rear leaf springs, or longer shackels...I do not believe that there is a source for these (shackels) so it is something you must fab. I have a DRW and will make me some soon.

Aren't there spacer blocks back there or is that only on 4x4s? If not I'd pull the overloads and install bags.
