was reading were guys have the mcgaughys 2/4.5 drop & they use the factory shackle it gives them 5'' drop. instead of using the drop shackle that comes with the kit that only gives you a 4.5 drop. Has anybody done this or have a pic of a 2/5 drop.

If you use a factory shackle with the McGaughys flip kit, you will actually get a 6" rear drop.

You are going to need a custom shackle or you can get rid of your overload to get a little more drop out back. With a 5" drop and no overloads, you are going to want some stronger shocks though because the rear is going to be very soft and most likely bottom out often on hard bumps.
