I want about 1.5 to 2 inch drop in the back. If I dearch, should I upgrade to a multileaf rear and then dearch or stay with my monoleaf rear and dearch. Or will dearching multileafs be a waste of time and defeating the whole purpose of multileafs.

Which would perform better while canyon carving, dearched multis or monos? My car is mono now, how hard would it be to upgrade to multis?

If you are going to lower the rear there's no need to switch to multi THEN de-arch them. There are many manufacturers selling drop springs. Make sure you get one with front biasing to reduce/eliminate wheel hop.

I used a set of 2 inch custom Eaton springs.
