Thats actually the same perosn i found online that i almost bought my shims from. I think he quoted me $40-50 for the set.

I ended up having my drop blocks machined to the angle i needed for $20.

When you lower the truck, you throw off the pinion angle. If your running a bagged truck you need to set the pinion angle at your ride height, and understand that your going to throw you angle off when you raise or lower the vehicle.

thanks, smitty, for posting that up for everyone else that runs into this.
