Advice on handling for my 2003 F150

Hi,
I have a 2003 F150 standard cab flareside with a 4.6/Auto. I'm thinking about a 2/4 lowering kit or just a 2" drop on the back. This is a daily driver but don't tow or really haul anything with it. It's got a pretty good rack on it so it dips really bad on turns, drives like a station wagon. Just looking for a low budget kit for a NICER STAND and HANDLE LITTLE LIKE A SPORT TRUCK.

PS. I have new 265/70/17 Copper AT's on the truck now so tires are not an option until they wear down.

Thanks

Stiffer springs, shocks, and lowered. Maybe an extra leaf in the back too.

Sway bars. Maybe a larger one for the front and one added to the rear.
