Just purchased a new 05 Screw 4.6. In the past when I had a couple of Lightenings I would lower the rear end to make the truck set more lever. And remove the factory rake built into the truck.
On the Screw, what size shackles am I looking for? I notice they come in 2 and 4 inch, which is the norm?
Thanks

FYI, I really like the new Screw and the $7,000 in rebates it had on it.
What I don't like about the truck is I took delivery on it Saturday evening and it got rearended on Thursday afternoon. Never would have thought a new rear bumper and repaint of the lower quarter panels would cost over $1,600.

 

You will want to go with the 2" shackle........

 

I didn't know you could get 4" of drop with shackles alone? In any case, you'll want 2" shackles...DJM, Ground Force, and Belltech make 'em, I'd go with the Ground Force shackles since they include pinion shims which you may or may not need.

 

Sorry about getting rearended! Hope everyone's okay . . .

 

I appreciate all of the response, I will be going with the 2 inch I guess which is what I was thinking was the correct shackle.
Yes everyone was fine in the rearender, other than truck damage and a totaled Honda Civic.
Thanks for asking.

 

I got the DJM 2” but recently I reset them to the 1” drop option, now it has a slight rake and IMO it’s just right
