94 XLT standard cable 2WD
I would like to level my truck. The rear end is higher than the front and the 14" tires look like grocery cart wheels. So, I see 2" lowering shackles for sale. Are these just simply shorter shackles that replace the factory ones and drop the bed? I've tried to look up the length of standard shackles and lowering shackles but haven't had any luck. After I get it level, I would like to swap out the 14s for 16s. Looks like there is plenty of room in the wheel wells front and rear.
Or would it be better/easier to raise the front with spring spacers? I've got coil springs, not torsion bars.
Does either one of these approaches require changing shocks?
Thanks
