easy mod, just take your time

 

I'm ready to do this myself. Shouldn't you also rotate the shim? Also, what about the bump stops - can you cut them off with a saw or are shorter replacements readily available?

 

its a good idea to rotate the shim to get the pinion angle back to stock, but you don't HAVE to. I didn't, and i don't get any vibrations, but the 02 and 03's with the 2 piece driveshaft are more prone to vibration so more of those guys flip the shims

as for bumpstops, you can leave them alone. with only 2" rear shackles you'll be perfectly fine
