06 F150 2wd leveling

Ive got a set of 24" wheels with a set of 305/35 tires on the way.. and i want to level my truck but i havnt been able to find any trucks with 24's and the leveling kit done to them in the search engine..

with those size wheels & tires.. do you think just dropping the back 2" with the drop shackles would be fine, or would i have to go all out and drop the front 2" and the rear 4"? because i found a set of ground force drop shackles (with pinions) on amazon for $94 shipped. compared to $1000+ for the 2/4" drop that i found.

thanks guys! im doing a ton of mods soon, ill be sure to post when im completed!

For the price difference, I'd try the shackles first and then move to the 2/4 if needed. What is the overall tire height with 24's?

It will look fine with just the lowering shackles. But, if the tire/wheel combo will fit, it will look awesome with a 2/4 drop!
