4x4 drop on a K-5? Is it possible?

So I know many think it unthinkable to convert a 4x4 to a 2x4, while others see no reason to hesitate at all. My son and I picked up a 72 k-5 CST 4x4 this last year with a ton of options and very clean. Going to be a build with my son, for his first ride. He prefers the 2x4 look, specifically dropped, instead of the 4 wheel drive.

Is it possible to lower it some with retaining the 4x4 suspension? Give it about the ride height of a standard 2x4, or maybe even a bit lower? Thinking we could get more the ride height he would prefer, while not "changing forever" a pretty pristine, original, well optioned ride. That way if he ultimately wanted 4x4 we haven't cut t up, and/or if he decides down the road to sell, he will still have a pretty original ride. Anyone done it? Kits available?

Thanks.....just want to get on this project before he decides he would rather just drive MY 68 C-10 short wide.
