I just picked up my new 2021 Shorty bed. I noticed the truck sits Too Damn High in the rear. I’m looking to lower the back with some longer rear spring shackles. The problem is The people the sell the kits , don’t know if they will fit??

Does it have blocks ? If so you can remove them. If I ever get mine that will be one of the first things I will do. Mine is crew cab 4x4

I agree.

I've had my RCSB since November. I'd hoped I would get used to it but NO!

I'm beginning to think that the suspension was designed for the extra 500+/- lbs of the larger trucks.
I "get" the rake for wind resistance but the RCSB rake is bit extreme.

Mine is/was FX4 reg cab short bed. Added Crown 2" shackles(slight trim of bed required, nothing major) removed blocks and added Belltech 2.5 degree shims.

That's right after the install, she has lost the FX4 decal and has new shoes since.
