Beachbilli,
The other benefit is that the truck will handle (steer) more accurately as the Shackle is at the rear of the spring. The stock inframe (upper) shackle bushings are narrow and wear out fast and that is partially why these stock configuration trucks steer like herding hogs....It can be done for less but ammayernick sourced all new parts and thats a good way to go, if you can swing it. On my second truck with RSK and they are so much nicer to drive. Really enjoy the SD springs all round on mine and also did front and rear anti-sway bars and it handles really very well...
