I bought a rough country 4.5" with full leafs and as of right now the ride sucks a$$. fine aired down, but no flex, and aired up on road the ride is terrible. so here is what i was thinking.
I want to get one of these shackle relocation brackets so i can improve my shackle angle. as of right now, my angle is virtually non existent, 90* straight up and down.

I also should probably get rid of the dinky p.o.s. stock shackles and swap them out for something a little longer and stronger, because from my understanding having them longer allows for more flex/droop. how much longer should i go?
another thing is this is going to add too much lift to the back, and in the essence of not looking like an asshat, i was thinking of either pulling a couple leafs or doing a spring under axle setup. which of these will be the best way to bring the lift back down after the relocation & shackles?
its still a work in progress, i am leaning towards pre-runner so i want things to be nice and soft.
thanks
