you could probably get the mopar springs they are a moderate drop and would level you out.

He's right, I put on the mopar springs only about an inch drop, don't have to worry about speed bumps. Take a look at Grinners ride, one of the nicest on the forum, he only dropped the front.you could probably get the mopar springs they are a moderate drop and would level you out.

I imagine the Mopar springs are similar to the same spring rate as the stock so using them to lower just the front should be fine.
However, most other aftermarket springs (Eibach, Hotchkiss, etc) will be higher spring rates.. I would not want to use a higher spring rate on only one half of the car, especially if you ever do any high speed turns...
While on that note, since most lowering springs have higher spring rates than stock, replacing all four might even you out some as the rear springs wont "settle" as much as the stock ones do...
Your best option would be coilovers, but they are expensive. I personally would get a good set of moderate or light drop springs, put all 4 on, let it settle a week, and take measurements. I think you will be happy with the effect and will not see a sag in the rear as you are now...
If you dont think that will make you happy, then stick with the Mopars.

Yourbest option would be going with air suspension. With the advancements in the air ride technology and air spring development in my opinion is the way to go.
