(i did a search, and did not find what I needed...truck specs in signature)

I want to drop the rear of my truck 2 inches. What are my options and the pros/cons of those options? I want to keep my factory ride quality, and am willing to spend extra to do so. I rarely haul anything in the bed, too.

Before you say, "you need a 2/4, 3/5, 4/6, 5/7, 17/18 drop" or whatever, I am not interested. I am going for a mildly aggressive stock look, and a 2-inch rear drop is all I want to do.

I have NO experience with suspension mods, so go easy on me.

Thanks, guys.

I wanted the same thing, so I went with DJM shackel kit, dropped it about 2" but the rear is still a little higher

How's the ride? Difficult to install?

Like everyone else said, a set of 2" shackles will do the trick.

1. What's the best brand to buy?
2. Where's the best place to buy them?
3. What's a decent price?

I see them for sale on here quite a bit, but I wouldn't know what to look for or if something is a rip-off.

I have Belltech drop shackles. They have holes for stock, 1" drop, or a 2" drop... very good quality... I think I paid $50 through Summit Racing or Jeg's...
