I'm looking to lower the rear of my single cab 2x4 to make it level. What have y'all used? What doesn't cost an arm and leg to lower the rear? I have been looking into the DJM 2" lowering shackles. What's you're experience with them? Or is there something else that you think is better? These looked the cheapest most productive route to go so let me know! Thanks forum!

 

Try looking at the lowering kit section in the FAQs

 

I used the McGaughys 2" drop shackles and as you can see in my sig picture it is not completely level. Drop shackles do a good job of helping the situation but if you are looking for a complete level the only thing I can think of is to take out the over-load spring as well. I have been toying with the idea or just doing a 3/5 drop or 4/5 drop and adding helper bags but just can't swing it financially right now. If you do the drop shackles yourself make sure you have the bolt head facing the outside of the truck, you will know what I am talking about when you do it lol. If you don't the bolt is long enough that it will rest on the frame.

 

2" shackles and remove your overloads (optional)

 

Sorry for the late reply. Like you said all the 2" drop shackles never completely level it out from what I've been reading. I really dont feel comfortable removing helper springs for ride quality reasons and if I ever had to put anything heavy in there which is rare but in case I needed to. What's your experiences?
