Does it still have all the factory leaves in? You could try taking a leaf out and see where its at..if its a little to much, leave out the leaf and go with a shorter shackle to raise it back up a bit..but that depends on the setup you have..got any pics?

A lot of the shackles come with two mounting holes. One for a 1" drop and the other for a 2" drop
