Spend a little extra and get the Ford Racing 2" shackles. They are about $110 from Jegs or Summit. You get pinion shims so you won't have any problems with the pinion angle being off. I have a set ordered for my new '13 Screw. The other sets are less expensive, but don't include the shims. A buddy put a set of those in a new 150 a few years back and had a bump whenever he started off from a stop. He took it to the dealership and after checking it out, they said, take the drop shackles out and your bump will go away.
Spend the money and do it right.

Bought just the shackles for my '11 and had a bad vibration between 15-25mph. Bought shims and it fixes the vibration.

got some on their way. No shims. If i have vibes i'll address the issue with shims. This is more of a temp setup until stock tires wear out then i'll probably go with a front level and some AT's.
