Haha, I looked at it with no drop for 3 months.

But, now that I'm thinking about it. I may just have to much air in the shocks. I'll check it out tomorrow am.

4/6 for the win. Only prob is your 305s will rub like crazy (Tony's 2x4 trick will help a little tho). My mcgaughys kit came with the lift hangers but never used them and ended up selling them. Instead I bought air shocks and used those the lift the rear slightly. Truck sits about 4/6.5 right now and I hardly bottom out with no notch.

I have 305/35. I really think they were labeled wrong from the factory. They just don't seem to be a 305 /35. Guess I won't know until I gotta get new tires.

Idk how denalis sit but it seems like mine and my brothers truck sit st about 2.5" difference from front to back stock. So you could possible go 3.5/6 and sit level and not need a notch

Haha, not sure, cause it already had shackles when I bought it, and I also removed the factory block.

Dad bought a harbor freight strut compressor for 30 bucks or so and we've used it a dozen times. Worth the money. I'm gonna have to get one someday
