nd advice, lower an '02 dbl cab Pre

Yah I know, open myself up for flaming, but here's the deal.
I bought the dbl cab for a 4-dr commuter vehicle and for toting home projects. I had a sport truck previously, and like the less body roll (lower Cg) and better handling. I won't be off-roading, and didn't want a prerunner, but ya can't get 4-doors any other way.
So I want to a mild lower job (2/3) my '02 PreRunner Dbl Cab, and wonder if swapping in XtraCab stock springs/leafs would do the job.
Anyone got info?

get the none prerunner rotors and drums (5 lug) and the rims and tires Do recommend keeping the same width though for traction. then the reg xtera cab shocks and leafs will get it about 1.5 to 2 inches total

check out customtacos.com there's at least one guy that did his and it looked dope....but yeah you're probably gonna get flamed a lil bit for asking...to do it right, it's not gonna be cheap and easy...just something to keep in mind...if you want better handling, just upgrade the suspension...get some bolt-on coilovers and keep them at stock height...
