Question Lowering 1983 C-10

I want to lower my 1983 C-10. It has a 6cyl engine. Is there a certain kind of lowering kit i need to get because it is not a V8 engine. Or can i use a standard 2/4 drop kit?

Welcome from South Carolina. I want to lower my '72 but I need to wait and get my other project back on the road.
