Thumbs up Western Chassis

Used Western Chassis 2" rear shackles from http://www.sporttruckdirect.com/index.html
I got about 1 1/2" drop from them. First mod I did to my 2001 Supercrew. Made such an improvement in the way she sits. Got her *** out of the air.
Go for it. You won't regret it.

Yes, on Bell Tech Shackles

My truck was less then ten days old when I installed the Bell Tech Shackles to level the bed. I can't stand to see the 2 wheel drice screws running around town with their rear end up in the air three inches, it looks STUPID.
I dropped it to the last set of holes, and it sets level.
Check out the photos at yahoo, from the link below.

Caution: I did have a harmonic vibration at 45-70 MPH, due to the change in the driveshaft angle, but it went away in two weeks, as the universal joint wore in at the new angle. It's only 2 degrees difference.
