This is the drop shown in your updated pics on the first post? Did you just swap out the springs in the front to get the 2" drop in the front? How is the ride?

Yes but those are pics right after the alignment so it hadn't settled much. although the kit was bought used so it probably didn't need much if any settling.

As far as ride quality to me feels like stock really. Not much change besides feeling like I have a little better control with the little lower stance

It looks great! I love that stance! I already dropped the back of my suburban 2" with the Belltech springs and shock extenders...trying to figure out what front drop will best compliment the rear. Probably going to do the McGaughys strut Relocators for the front since they are adjustable and use stock parts.
