edge lowering spindles?

Is there any place that sells lowering spindles for a 2004 edge? I did the key flip but I would still like my truck to sit lower than it already is. I have found lifting spindles but no lowering spindles. Anyone?

I am going to bag it sometime after I get the money to do so. Maybe next year around tax time. Right now I am riding with the a$$ end of my truck 2 inches lower than the front.

If its within your means, trade it for an 05 STX.. they have coils in the front like an XLT.

The reason I bought the edge was because It was the best deal I found when I went truck shopping. I got my truck for 10,000 dollars brand new. I had no idea it would be such a pain in the a$$ to lower. I am just gonna keep my a$$ end of my truck sagging until my warranty is up and then I am going to bag it.
