Default 1.6L suspension

Can anyone suggest a way to lower the front of my panelvan 2 - 2.5 inches with the standard 1.6 shocks. King springs ultra lows only go about 1.5inch lower, I've been told to do a 2l strut conversion and do adjustable coilovers... Anyone got some suggestions???

Adjustable coilovers are good, besides the adjustable height and camber they give you a really solid ride. but make sure you choose the right spring rates because to stiff can get annoying to drive on the street, youll feel every bump in the road......
