Anything lower than 2.0" drop. Not too hard. Should take about 2-3 hours with basic hand tools.

Are there differences in more agressive camber changes? For example, I am only dropped about 2 inches, if that. What degree of kit would I look for? Would +1.75 degrees - +3.25 degrees be too much?

So what you are saying that if i get lowering springs that only give me 1.5 to 1.7in drop all around i DO NOT have to get a camber kit.
Even with that drop would i have to do something with the alignment?

after you drop you should take it to an alignment shop and get a printout from them. 1.5-1.7 is a mild drop and won't mess with camber that much, but you never know, you might just end up with needing one.
Anyhow, take it to the shop first.

This is what you will be installing at the top of your strut in your wheel well. Once installed you can adjust the 4 nuts at the top to get a zero degree camber. If you want to go the cheap and effective route you could just eyeball your wheels and use a leveller with a bubble in it against your tire while on flat ground, and keep adjusting through trial and error.

Personally I would get them with any lowering mod..
