    Drop kit help

    I am wanting to do a 2/4 drop on my truck. I already have the 2 inch rear shackles. I know nothing about drop kits, so what do I need? I have heard with the SS's being AWD that it could be problematic with the drivetrain to drop them. Is this true? Links to what I need are appreciated!
