Help me out guy's!
I think I want to level out my truck. Just about everybody I see always lifts the front of there trucks, but I want to drop the rear to match the front. Is there a kit for this? Give me some info on this, because I know nothing about this kind of thing. If there is a kit let me know where to get it, also what kind of money am I looking at spending for this.

Here's one from Moe's.

Double check with him that it'll fit your truck though as it doesn't mention a year. Although I don't think it should matter but you never know.

Shouldn't be too bad. You're going to need to lift the truck on the frame, support the axle with something, undo the springs, install the shackles and then reverse the process. If I was doing it I'd budget 2 to 3 hours for it. Not a complicated process, it would just take some time.

Moe's and DJM both have the shackles. They advertise 2"s, but the best I can get confirmed is you'll get a 1"- 1.75" drop.
The rear of my truck is 4" higher than the front. Short of using the shackles and removing the overload springs,the only other way to drop much lower without a flip kit, which will give you 4.5-6" drop depending on the mfg. you choose, is to get replacement rear springs.
Eibach has a set they say will give you 2-3", Eaton Springs have a set that they advertise as 2" lower than stock, and Beltech has a set that say 2-3" below stock as well.
Hope all this rambling helps.
