I lowered my truck in the rear with 3" shackles but it is not enough need another 2" and this kit would get me the clearance I need to add those extra 2". I really don't want to go extremely low I just want the truck lower than stock and level. When I installed the 2" coils and 3" shackles, the truck is lower but still has about 2" more clearance above the rear tires than the front, I just want them to be the same.
I see your truck is pretty low, if you had a choice would you use a combination of shackles and hangers, a flip kit or some other method? I know that in any case to go much more than 3-4" in the rear, I will definitely need the C-notch kit.

I went with lowering springs, shackles and moved the hanger up 1.5 inches in the rear. the front is 2.5 springs and 2 inch spindles with street performance shocks all the way around. When you lower the front with springs get 11/16 round bump stops from summit. the old ones just spin off and replace them. It will soften the ride alot.
