2" coil spring spacers
Hey so im putting 3/4 ton springs in the rear of my truck and im gonna level it out with 2 inch coil spacers. Will i need a drop bracket or anything special for this?

i did the trailmaster leveling springs on the front of my 4X4 and they had to install different adjustable pieces so they could get it in alignment. cost me $120.00 for it to be done.

dont get the rubber insert bushing the spring hold down wont go down all the way becasue of the spacer they give you and you will have a constant clunking in the front of your truck go with the 2.5 in kit from rough country its about 200 and they barley have to do anything to align it because it comes with all the drop brackets, i have to get some new pics of my truck with it done but i jsut put it on my truck last week and it looks sweet

youd be surprised, your tires will wear on the outside more that they will on the inside but probaly not by much, and it all depends on how long ago your last alignment was becasue if your springs have sagged since the last alignment all you mght have done is put it bacl to wear it was, i needed an alignment to becasue i replaced evrything in the front end all seals bearing, gear box tie rod ends everything is brand new
