Belltech 6400 rear shacklewill drop it about 1.25-1.5. We've seen a variance in the rear drops on the nb as well as in the front raising. Not all NB GM's sit at the same heights.

I did the longer shackle trick on a Toyota Tundra to level the truck and it cost me dearly in payload capacity. Looked great though. I took the lowering shackles off and raised the front with Bilstein springs. It leveled out nicely, rode well, and maintained the payload capacity. I imagine you'd get the same result with the Silverado. I have an 07 NBS Silverado Extended Cab Z71 and would like to level it as well. I would only do it if I could find a good front end lift. Be sure to realign the front end after a lift. - Lee (Silverado noob)
