Looks like you might be able to benefit from a 2* shim back there.
Keep up those crunches. This is getting interesting.
I like the truck in your sig personally.

Lookin good man. Didn't realize those things sat that high, cuz its still way up there w/ the new leafs. Never seen the rear shackles before? Do the shackles have a drop to them as well?

No, I dont think the shackles lower anything, just makes for a cushy ride.
