Default Cheapest drop shackles?

Ok, you guys have talked me into ordering a set of drop shackles! Where is the cheapest place to order a set from? Also, what will happen to my towing capabilities if I remove the O/L spring?

I got my McGaughys 2" drop shackles from moes.

If you plan on towing anything more than a very small boat or small atv trailer, I would either leave the overload or get air bags to level the ride when towing.

Would 2'' drop shackles without removing the o/l springs really drop it 2'' though?
