Wanting to lower!

Just want to lower rear end, but I don't want it be level with the front, I want it to be 1 inch higher in the rear.

So is this what I'm looking for? Will I need anything else? Let me know! Thanks guys!

Also will the driveshaft be a problem? Or will it be ok with it's original length?

Yep. DJM shackles on 1" drop hole will do what your wanting.

Driveshaft is fine with pretty much any drop.

Or if you don't do too much towing or hauling you could remove a leaf.

Thanks a lot.

Na I rarely tow or pull anything.

So I'll see what happens when/if I get those shackles. Debating leveling front or dropping rear.

Either way I'll post pics when done!

Once again thank you for your knowledge!

Exactly what everyone says, honestly leaning towards the drop. Just need wider tires in the rear.
