Yea those are 30.1"..I ran 245/65/17 which are 29.5 at 5.5" up front and they rubbed so you are gonna rub with a tire that tall..try like a 255/65/16 -29.1"

I figured if I pulled it would ride better cause it wouldn't be as stiff no? I might be wrong lol

when you are unloaded it should be like having a block, the ride shouldnt be affected because its not doing anything, it only acts as a leaf when the suspension sags enough for the outter edges to contact the leaf

If I drop my 2004 CCSB Z-71 4wd in the rear via 2" drop shackles, and by removing the lift block will I have to add shims to obtain a correct pinion angle?

You will just have to check the pinion angle since every truck is different but I didnt have to shim mine

 

[Samuel6731]

prob wont have to. Lower it, drive it. If it vibrates check pinion and shim accordingly.

Thanks for the info everyone. Anyone know what the specs are for the pinion angle of a NBS? Any recommendations on a tool to measure the pinion angle?

Check this thread out. It is about an NNBS truck, but many similarities between them, and nbs specs are mentioned IIRC
