Default Lowering Express 2500

Hi. I'm new to the forum. Just bought my 2001 Express 2500 a month ago and seeing a lot of potential. Camper van so far. I want to lower it instead of the common lift. Recently I've looked online and sights that provide the lowering kits don't have them for the Chevy Express. Anyone have any knowledge on this or has done it? Is it going be $$$$$. Thanks and its great to find a Chevy Express forum.

Re-arching the leaf springs will lower the rear. Up front, I'm assuming you could find some shorter coil springs and shocks to match.

I'd cross ck the spindles from a pu for fit. But I'd also do any build out before I change ride height ,

Hope you don't plan to camp too far off the paved roads.
