Default 02 Chevy Silverado Stepside

Hello all! I am new to this forum, I know how helpful forums can be as I belong to a 450r one and know all the discussions that go about on a forum. I have a Question. I have an Orange 02 Chevy Silverado (Stepside v-6 - 22"s). I order Mccaughys 2" Drop spindles for front, Also have Belltech Nitro 2 Shocks for all the way around it. The truck is currently Level'd But have factory Shackles still to. My question is on my 2/4 Drop that im going to achieve. How would you lower the back? Should Spend the money on re-arched leafs? Or go with Hangers? Im not really wanting to do a flip on the axle. All Opinions are MUCH appreciated though, Ill take all advice I can get.

The factory hangers can be reused, just flip them upside down. This will lower it 2 inches.

Serious question? Factoyr hangers are Hudge, when you flip em, how do you keep em from hitting the bed? And If I do this I use my 2" Drop shackles with? I also have an extra set of brand new beltech drop shackles part number 6400
