Sagging suspension in back! Help!!
Hey all, Ive got a brand new 4.5" rough country lift. Back end is quite lower than the front. Wondering if i need a leveling kit of some sort? Shackles? Leafs? Springs? Not too sure. Any help is appreciated!

Usually with RC, I read about the back being much higher than the front after initial install. Should throw up a picture of the rear suspension for us.

I say throw some shackles under there and be done with it.
My 4.5" R.C. lift sat fairly level front to back, but a little tilted (right front kinda dipped down a tad)...decided to remedy with adjustable coil overs, but of course then it sat higher in front so I threw some shackles in the rear...then of course needed control arm drops...longer shocks...longer adjust track bar...pitman arm...etc, etc...ugh. But it sits level!! I'm happy with it and it rides great now

Oh, right...I guess thats proper 'technical term'...I just know they have a sticker on them that says ACOS, (Adjustable Coil Over System?...or maybe its Spacers?). Whatever...those nifty lil things that go on top of your coil springs and allow you to adjust the height lol. They are awesome!
