Lowering 2wd vs 4wd

Just a quick question. How much harder (if any) and more price cost for a normal lowering (3/5 or so drop) on a Ford 350 (02/03 yr). I see more 4wd for sale than 2wd with the options I want. Didn't want to go the 4wd route if I don't have to, have no use for it.


Thanks...

You can lower a 4x4, but the way you have to go about it isnt the right way (i.e. remove torsion keys, cut coils, blocks, or whatever).
It would be more practical and cheaper to lift the 4wd and lower a 2wd.

Thanks. Thats what I was wondering. I see that basically all the lowered ones I see on net are 2wd. So I guess I will keep looking for that special one that catches my eyes.
