0/2 drop? Anyone have pics?
Thinking about removing my overload leaf and adding some longer shackles to the rear of my 77 to get get it leveled out. Looking for pics of a "0/2" drop basically. Preferably long bed half tons. But whatever ya got!

Dang that makes my choice even harder! I thought for sure seeing a pic of one would give me a love it or hate it gut reaction, but i just cant decide! At any rate, your truck looks good! What did you do to drop it?

I think it just has drop shackles on the back of it. My dad dropped the back 2 inches when he owned the truck, so I'm not exactly sure what he used to do it.

Re: 0/2 drop? Anyone have pics?
that will give you an idea of what it will look like on your truck and then you can decide whether you like it or not.

exactly, although if you have a lesser half ton you may be good with 500 to 750

Re: 0/2 drop? Anyone have pics?
A shackle kit will drop the rear 2". A bracket kit will drop the rear another 2". I put both on my step/short bed which made it look like it was running uphill. I put 2 1/2 drop spindles on front, now it's running down hill (slightly) again. Bottom line, 2" will just about level out your ride.
