Default lowering kit for rear

Hey I have been looking at getting a 2in +/- drop on the rear to level it out. I DONT want a full lowering kit because they look stupid to me. I just want the truck to be even basicly. i found a shackle on Ebay for around 50 bucks to lower the rear 2in. It looks good, with a warranty also .

But yes does this look good? Easy to install to you guys? What else is an option out there?
The only thing I am really worried about is about 2 times a month I have to haul around 800 pounds in the bed, and tow around 5500 pounds on a trailer. So I just want these guys to hold up!!

I'm planning on doing the same thing, and I've talked back and forth with Ground Force and this is what I'm getting ready to order. The Tech I spoke with said all payload capacities remain the same.

Why not level but raising the front 2 +/- inches??? This way no problems towing.

No offense to any that prefers that approach, but I'm not going to be running anything biggerthan the stock 20" tire size, so i don't want any more wheel well than i already have so thats why i'm dropping the a$$.
