Drop Shackles

Hey guys,

I want to improve the looks of my truck and Im thinking about it and I have 2wd and I dont wanna look poser by lifting it and itll be to much money for me. since I already have the rims and tires for street, I think I am going to do the drop shackles. How much do they cost and where can I get them? I live on a dirt road so I cant go really low. It shouldnt be a problem though cause my sister goes fast down the dirt road with no problems with her MINI COOPER!! haha. Anyways, How much of a drop should I go with in the back. I just dont like the look of the back being so high. The front is perfect.

Mike

Will the 2 inch drop shackles for the rear be enough?

That is the shackle kit I used. The majority of users her use them too. They come with a pinion shim that corrects the pinion angle.

I have a set of belltech shackles that I just pulled off my 04 150 when lifting it. They appear to offer more drop than the ones on that ebay link. PM me if interested
