I went with deaver +3 and kinda wish I went with +2. I can just go with lowering shackles to bring it down 1" right?

yes...and the springs seem to be a bit more compliant with the longer shackles...I ran longer shackles on my last truck also for that same reason...

Can you elaborate more on why you want +2. I was thinking about going +3, but would like to hear why you prefer the +2.

A +2 rear shackle will lower the rear 1 inch
So if you have +3 deavers and want to be stock height that is the setup
The benefit of running +3 deavers with +2 shackles is you get more suspension droop (some say even a better ride but i can't comment on that)

I started with 1.5" collars up front and it wasn't level enough for me. I went up to 2.25" and it was perfectly level. Then I went with +3 deavers in the rear for who knows why and the rake is back. Id like it back down to have the perfectly level look.
