The Draglink has quite an angle to it. That is one of the main reasons for the poor driving. I'm surprised it doesn't have a dropped draglink or a dropped pitman arm with 8 inches of lift. Most front 8 inch springs will ride rough though.
That truck is so clean compared to our "rust-belt" trucks around here!

It has this pitman arm...

So seeing that even with lift springs in the front w/ stock shackles the shackles are nearly touching the frame, wouldn't it be a good idea to get longer shackles for the front?

Because on my stock suspension the front shackles are nearly touching the frame too...

It looks like the springs do hit the frame occasionally...the powder coating is a little marked up.
