I don't have a link but when I did the 3" one they did hit the pinch rail under the bed but I just bent a little to get them out of the way. I've also seen some people on here grind it a little to get the clearance.

for the 1997-2003 trucks JLP made an adjustable shackle for 2" 2.5" or 3" However they called it the 2-3-4 which isnt correct.

im not sure who makes a 3" for the 04-08 trucks

I've seen some 3" drop shackles on ebay before. Canuck motorsports I think.

I know some people have had to bend the pinch rail to fit 2" shackle for some reason. I never had this issue.

I have a full Roush suspension kit that is a 2/4 drop. I just bought a boat and cant tow it with the lowering kit. I posted under the "street scene" topics that I am looking to trade my kit for a stock suspension. Lemme know if your interested....
