If you have drop brackets you should only need the factory 2 degree bushing because you are not changing the radius arm angle.

If the front is raised 6" and if the radius arm brackets are dropped same 6", then no change is needed.

If the front is raised 6" and the radius arm brackets lowered 3", then you still have 3" of lift to correct for with C-bushings if you want her right.
