I know there are probably a few different opinions, but what are the best rear end lowering shackles to use. Truck already has a 1" and 2", but wanted to level the back out a little more. I see the ones on the JLP website have the three different lowering options all the way up to 4". Which ones are the best to go with???

Thanks, Michael.

This is the kit that is already on the truck, but wanted to level it out some more. Truck still sits up a little high in the back.

There really isn't a best for shackles they are all about the same. IMHO.

remove a leaf....or buy some hangers :tu:
I heard is a bad idea to go more than 2" on just shackles...
Hangers are a pain in the ass tho.
