Default Lowered 2500

I am very seriously considering lowering my truck. The only lowering kits I have found are just front springs and rear shackles. I am concerned about rear shock angles and front suspension geometry. In my mind, to do it correctly, the spindles should be raised. This is a daily driver and I don't want any alignment issues. Before you all slaughter me for lowering a truck, I want to do it for economy reasons. The entire goal of this truck is to maximize fuel economy. I am looking for any suggestions you might have.

Put it on air, one day I will have this kit..... I love lowered trucks, but you will probably catch some heat over it.

I agree with putting air bags on it! Very expensive, but worth it
