I had 2 inch drop shackles on my 3rd gen 4x4. Only dropped it 1.25 inches though. I should be able to find a pic by tonight. I get off work @ 4, so I'll look for it.

McGaughy's 2" drop shackles. Hope this helps!

Before, and completely stock.


After the shackles, and a TON of other mods.


And... this was the 2/5 drop. Actually went about an inch lower than this in the front and back when I was finally finished.

i have 2" lowering shackles on my 05 for a short period of time. 1" wouldn't make much of a difference at all imo
