drop shackles

Anybody having issues with ride quality with 2 inch drop shackels on nnbs? Im considering leveling my truck and wanted to know bout ride quality and quality of different brands of shackles. Thanks

ride quality is fine. take the rear block out too and it will sit level if yoiu don't it will still sit hiked up in the rear

I bought the drop Shackles from Autozone and removed lift block and my rear is 1/2" lower.

im assuming you meant your truck was a 1/2 inch lower after the removal of just the blocks.... right? lol

Nope. I installed the shackles and removed the lift block and my front is now 1/2" higher.

gotcha

Mine sits just fine in my opinion sir

Remember that when you raise one end of the leaf spring, the truck is lowered by half the amount the end of the spring was raised. I thought I had 2" shackles on my truck, but I measured them and they were 7" center-to-center. Stock shackles are around 4". So I raised the rear of the spring 3", effectively lowering the truck about 1.5". Just wanted to let you know that a lot of "2 inch" shackles only yield 1.5" of drop.
