Drop Shackle Question...

I know this may be a bit repetitive, but I'm looking to level out the rear end of my 2wd pickup with the front.

My problem is this: every drop shackle kit that I've found is for 2.5" wide leaf springs, and spacer blocks to lower the rear are for a spring under axle configuration.

My truck's leaf springs are 3" wide and I have a spring -over- axle configuration.

Which brings me to my question...where can I find a drop shackle kit for 3" wide leaf springs?

The 2.5" springs are for the 97-03's and you're looking for a 04+. Check out Beltech or Ground Force for your application.

Get the Ground Force kit. It comes with the wedges needed to keep the pumpkin in alignment.

I've had the Ground Force kit on for over 3 years.

Well see, I've searched a few different sites using my exact year model of truck and everything...it still gives me results saying the kit is for 2.5" leaf springs. Still not sure what to do...
