Another drop shackle Question
Reasonably new to the "L" community and have posted a few time on this subject and recieved some good information but still have some confusion. :o
I have an "03" L and am looking to just add a 2" drop shacke to
level out a bit. Will this change the payload rating? Do I need to worry about the whole pinion angle thing.
The trucks main purpose is please, show and a few romp
on the pedal.

In some rare ocassions, it seems a few had pinion angle prob's.
I believe it was Mart Man, or Dan the Man, that had to "shim it" to get back the correct angle. But I also believe they used a 3" or 4" shackle drop, (you need more than a 2" drop on the 03 to get it back down to almost level)
