Hey guys
I bought a 2019 raptor with the fox 3.0s and icon leafs. It has a pretty substantial rake. Makes the 315s look like roller skate wheels. I’d like to do some plus two shackles to bring the rear down an inch. Looks like foutz sells some that works with icons.
2 questions
Will this change how the rear end rides?
Will I need any type of alignment after?

Thanks in advance.

I’ve got some KHC +2 shackles I’ll let go for $100. They were awesome, just put 37” on the truck so needed the stock shackle height

1. I'm not seeing a substantial rake in the pic, maybe a slight one.
2. Count the leafs in the icon pack and also measure the lenght of the 3rd leaf, and call Icon. It may have the optional leaf installed (option 2 or 3) and you fix the height by changing that leaf out or removing it if it was added to the pack and going to option 1.

That’s the plan. I’m gonna get the 37s on and see how it looks before I start swapping stuff around
