Default Drop Shackle with Support Airbags

Do you need to make any modifications to the airbag support brackets so that they will work properly with a 2" drop shackle? What about with the block removed as well? I have towed with the 2" shackle and it was bottomed out on the shocks (I installed shorter bumpstops).
Thanks for the help, this seems to be the best forum for these trucks!

Ok here are my results AirLift kit installed, before you air up the bag it looks like it's a no go. Once aired up there is not a single problem!

If you mount the top support at the right height it will work.

My kit had no availible mounting options just one way to mount the top support. It was AirLift kit 59565.
