Depending on how much i have for front once the tb crank is done.
longer shackles on a 4wd will lower it. you need to flip it first than you can get longer shackles.

a shackle flip. A easy way to get some lift is to get some front brackets off a donor vehicle and put them in the back in place of the stock ones. Ideally you will weld them on.
