was wondering if there is a way to lower the rear of my 2 wheel drive truck 1/2 to 1 inch lower.....so it can sit a little more level... i am surprised that the bed height is close to same height as other full size 2 wheel drives................. also curious of any suspension changes available to stiffen the softness a bit without raising the height of the truck

Short answer---no. But here's a couple links to the threads about lowering:

You can have the springs de-arced, that's what I did, bought a second set so I could keep the stock ones and had 1.5" taken out of the spring arc, sits perfectly level now, well within a 1/4" I should say.
