Drop Questions
I'm going to get rid of my truck's rake.
Are shackles enough to do this, or do you need new springs, shocks, etc?
Also, anyone have any trouble with bottoming out with just the shackles?
Thanks.

Personally I like the rake look.

But shackles would work fine. I would suggest picking up a panhard bar to go on while you're under there.
