it depends on how much you want to drop it! the easiest way is to use lowering blocks (steel)(exaple 40or50mm) ,fit them on top of your slabs. make sure you drill holes in the blocks to sentre them, then fit the diff on top of the blocks. you have to extend the u-bolts or use longer ones. if you want to lower it even more you can bend the ends of the slabs with a blow torch, but then you have to modifiy you shock mounts. taking out a leaf will lower it a bit but your suspension will be up to ####! good luck!
