Shackles. Most are 1-2" adjustable, but JLP has 2-3" and 2-4" adjustables. http://www.johnnylightningperf.com

Thanks for the link.
Are there any installation articles on this site for lowering the rear?
How many inches (2-3 or 2-3-4) do I need to purchase to even the rear with the front?
Thanks.

You might want to investigate this option a little bit more. I can't promise that you'd get the amount of drop that you want, but you very well might.

For the rear, definitely shackles. Takes about 2 hours and is simple.

Ok..what part# do I need to order the 2-4 from JLP?
Also is there anything else I need to complete the rear drop?
Thanks!!

Question

Anyone have any experience with these on anything but a regular cab or a Lightning? It seems like the simplest way to get 3-4" of drop back there...but I am skeptical. Yet thinking that I could retain my stock leafs, not grind the heck out of my hangers and not lose thev payload with lowered leafs...

Seems worth it!
