Looking for options besides the $125 Ford Performance / Ground Force lowering shackles. I asked a couple members here, both recommended the Ford Performance ones (not trying to dis-credit, just weighing all options). I dont want to sound cheap, but I have at least 3 more mods to get done to get the truck to where I want it for now. The vendor I asked a few days ago hasnt replied, so give me your thoughts on what works for you. I know some blow out the bushings rather quick. If the Ford / GF ones are the best, then thats what I will get. Thanks.

I like BellTech for the simple fact they use an OEM style rubber bushing. Quiet and won't wear out like some of the urethane bushings do.

I like the Belltech also, but they only offer a 1" drop shackle.

The BellTech lift shackles that are included with the 4" rear drop kit are a 2 piece urethane bushing and have started squeaking on my truck...

Are DJM any good?

Well I bought the Ford Performance M-3000-H kit. Came with shims, so I installed those as well. Got a even 2" drop and have zero drive-line vibrations. Very happy with my purchase! Better yet, it really firmed up the ride in the rear. Feels much more "planted" now.

Will someone with lowering shackles post pics from the rear? close and somewhat far away maybe 100 feet.

If you have any highway/driving pictures, add those.

I just keep seeing the same camera angles everywhere and I want a better idea of what it looks like.

Thanks

What will pics from the rear prove? Put a ton of weightin the bed, until it drops it 2", then you will see how it sits.

it won't "prove" anything. Thanks for that wisdom. It's just a request, keep bs comments to yourself. Thanks
