06 4x4 dually leveling....lowering rear that is.

[Quickerthanu]

I'm wanint go to lower the rear of my 06 4x4 shortbed dually so it will sit level with the front.(guessing 2") I don't want to raise the front due to it's hard enough for family members to get in and out.


Question is should I get a pair of drop shackles or remove the 2" block?


With either option will I need to adjust the pinion angle?


If the 2" block is removed will the leaf springs sit correctly on the rear axle and bolt up correctly?(provided I get shorter U-bolts)


One last thing will this throw off the alignment on the front?...i.e. Camber and Toe


Thanks all for the help.

the leafs should sit fine on the axle just set the center bolt in the hole and get some shorter u bolts ......

Drop the block and get new rear u-bolts.
