2008 Lariat SCrew with Shackle Kit Pics
Got a GroundForce shackle kit from Santa. Installed it yesterday, but only got a one inch drop, so took out the stock leaf spring blocks and now she's sitting just over two inches lower now. I used the shims from the kit as well. Test drive went well, a touch firmer but still rides nice. Pics below...

Shackle Kit only w/shims:
Shackle Kit w/shims(minus stock leaf blocks):
I'm happy with the stance. Don't want it slammed as I still use it for hauling(mulch, motorcycles, trailers, etc.) and need some rake to accommodate medium loads.
Up next, a cat-back and 22s...I love this truck!!

How much are drop shackles costing y'all?? I'm on the fence about lifting it and throwing mud tires or dropping it and throwing on some nice wheels and making it a street truck. I don't know what in the heck I want to do.
What is the best lowering kit to go with?? Eibach??

Thanks guys...it's a 2WD, the front ends are so low on these they look like kinda goofy so I had to do something...GF Kit cost $108 from Summit, I got the one with the OEM rubber bushings to avoid any squeaks, the kit with urethane bushings was actually a couple bucks cheaper...yes tail pipe looks small compared to the rest of the truck, but measures 2.5", just picked up a stainless steel tip that's about 3" or so this afternoon and put it on, I'll drop a pic later.
