the only thing you can do (which is probably already done) is take all the preload off your springs...

buy new front shocks and get the rear revalved and a rear link...it dropped my ride height from about 11 inches or so to 8 inches...

I'm selling a rear shock that will drop your ride height 2-3 inches in the rear.
