im out on the look out for a 2-3 inch shackle hanger kit any recommended brands or companies to buy from??

 

I would look at the ICON hanger kit. There is a 3" and a 4.5" version. I am running the 4.5" kit and no complaints.

 

What's was included with that and what was the damage to the wallet for that kit. I hear they are pretty pricey

 

This info was off the Icon website add choice of shocks to the lift. The 3" lift looks to be a leveling kit and the 4.5" lift raises front and rear. I just spent 5 days in the mountains and the truck was fully loaded. The truck handled the load and the off road conditions fine.
