    Technically...you could just swap the springs. Most people while they are down there replace the shocks as well. 1.4 inches is a decent drop...relocation brackets as well as some lcas and some other suspension stuff is recommended.

      Buy GOOD shocks. I bought what I thought were decent cheap shocks and they sucked so I'm upgrading to Konis which I wanted to do in the first place but didnt' have enough money. An adjustable panhard bar is helpful to recenter the rear from the drop. you'll definately want lower control arm relocation brackets since your arm geometry will be way off with that much of a drop. You'll also need an alignment once you're done. I still need to find a shop that will align mine. Belle Tire are morons and said there wasn't enough adjustment to get mine even close.
