Yeah you can use longer shackles up front 5.5" I think is what tv sells with their sas kits...and blocks wont hurt just try not towards dump the clutch too much..it might bend ur springs without a traction bar of some sort...n looks good man I like it

that thing looks good man, ever thought of putting your front blinkers into your marker lights? the plug for the blinker and marker lights are the same so you can just plug the blinkers into the marker lights and marker lights into the blinkers
