i think the 3/4 would look better the truck sits level with the 3/4, and besides the lower the better any way. i had belltech springs and djm shackles and hangers. i never changed the shocks and mine didnt ride that bad.
camber is the degree of angle that your wheels are leaning in or out. usually when you lower a truck you get negative camber and it will wear the insides of your tires before the outside. the camber keys allow for more adjustment so you can get the correct camber. i think i paid about $200 to get my truck aligned after i lowered it that was with them putting in the new camber keys, but i also had 20" wheels and Kaufman tire charges a $100 to just align a vehicle with 20" wheels or bigger.

This is the exact kit I got, has the NitroActive shocks, very nice shocks.
Edit: And they don't show it, but it does come with the alignment kit, too. I had bought a seperate alignment kit because it was a suggested part, then everything got here and I ended up with 2 alignment kits.

Thanks, that is what I have been looking at, but I would like to have the new twin tube Nitro drop 2 shocks with it. I wonder if they would trade them out? Also, what all is part of the alignment kit(parts)? I'm new at lowering and all the terms and parts.
Thanks!
Thanks!
