    JLP 2-3-4" shackles here as well, they provide 3" net drop on the max setting.

    I want them! I want to replace my Belltech with JLP's to gain that extra 1" plus adding the rubber sulastics should gain another 1/2"

    I don't believe you can do shackles and sulastics together.

    thank you, since you've had both setups - which rides better?

    Stock leafs with drop shackles rode better The belltechs made the rear lower but the ride was very tight.it's up to the person on what they prefer. Looks and performance or ride quality

    Regardless of how you decide to lower it, shock extenders are a very good idea for any kind of lowered suspension.

    It's true because you will get the full shock travel with them.
    Anything more than 2 inches will require them
