First of all, thanks to everyone for help with my first thread regarding springs. Now I have another question. I am checking into a 2"-2" or a 2"-3" drop. What I have found looking at kits is that with a 2-2, the kit uses 2" drop springs for the front and 2" shackles for the rear. When looking at 2-4 kits, it uses a 2" drop spring in the front and shackles AND hangers in the rear. If want to go 3" in the rear, can I get by with shackles only? Will I have to get hangers as well? This would be a deciding factor on what drop I do. I'm on limited budged, and can basically only afford the springs, maybe shackles. I know a kit with the hangers and all hardware is out of the question. Thanks in advance.

 

You can get a 2-3 drop from just shackles and springs but of course to go lower you would have to add hangers. I know someone makes it because I saw them when I was getting my drop done. I think who ever makes the 3-5 drop has the 3 inch drop rear shackels.

 

I forgot to mention that I am only wanting a 2-2 or 2-3 drop. I still want a 1-2" rake so my truck will sit level when I pull my pop up camper or my brothers four wheeler trailer. I really want a 2" front and 3" rear. By cheap method, I am looking at buying springs only. I can get shackles made for free. Thus, I am looking at $150 or less just for springs and that should be my only cost. Granted I will need shocks, but then my shocks will be worn out anyway and need replacing.
