Lowering RearEnd

This may sound weird to all you guys lifting front and putting bigger tires on but I like the factory tire size and want to drop rear to get level stance. Best way to do this???? take out rear blocks??? drop shakles??? any of these affect ride or any other issues I'm not thinking of.

Thanks

I was going to go with a set of Ground Force 2" drop shackles. Good quality kit and good looking effect on the truck.

Take the blocks out!

I did. Others have. Cheap. Easy. I had zero side effects. I love the way it looks.

If you have a 4x4, take out the blocks. if you have a 4x2, Ground Force 2" kit.
