Which shackles to go with?
Well I am in the market for 2in drop shackles to level the back out on my 2011 HD AWD. Now the dilemma is which brand to go with. My options are Ford racing (comes w/ shims), ground force (comes w/ shims as well), DJM, or Belltech. As far as pricing they are all around the same. What I want to know is quality as well as do I need the shims? I've been doing some research and most say shims are not required for a 2in drop but I've seen people needing them due to driveline vibration. Any input/s would be greatly appreciated.

Cant Stop Wont Stop
Hey bro, I dont know the drop on these (2in drop i think) or even what brand they are but they were on my 06 2wd. A shop added these plus de-arched my rear leaf springs to lower my truck. I went another route with my truck so they are just laying around. I'm looking for some stock shackles and am willing to straight trade.
I dont know if they're compatible but they should be. If interested lets do our homework and we'll trade. I'll send you mine first and see if they fit. If not just send them back. If they do, send me your stock shackles.
Just an idea.

Boost :)
Had the GroundForce on my 2011 FX2 and it leveled it perfectly and rode great. I just ordered another set of the same for my 2013 Platinum and will be installing the kit again myself.
It is very straight forward and very easily done. No issues to speak of with the kit and it makes the truck sit how it should have from the factory.
