How does being 2inch lower affect the towing? And how much a deal getting the shackles install?

CehowardF150, you can install the shackles yourself if you have the tools. The gentleman on here with the singlecab shortbed truck with 22s (bluish/greenish color truck) made a tutorial that is quite good on how to do it. I ended up just having mine installed because I don't have all the floor jacks and such required to get the truck high enough to do it. I haven't hauled anything since the install but according to the folks who did it for me it should not affect anything.
ive towed a jet ski with mine, i have a screw... and probly about 1000 lbs worth of hardwood flooring in the bed. no problems.

RC got 44,000+ miles and going super strong.
GSX R1000 got 50,000+ miles, and going stronger..
You had the tightest RC out there.
When you coming back to the RC world??
yeah, I gotta get my truck lowered! And since I am a pure sportcar pilot, I am looking at one of the full setups that included the shocks, springs, swaybars, struts,and shackles. More then once I found myself headed for the apex of the turn, and getting on the gas, only to find out that I am in my F150.
Will be doing this sometime next year, in the meantime, gotta be cool and just profile in the F150..
Can't let any of the old man's agressive/defensive/dam-right-brilliant driving transfer to my F150..
Be safe,
