it really depends... how much up/down travel do you plan on having?

Your probably going to want to have much more down travel then up travel by adjusting shackle angle further back.

i run 38's with wagonner springs all around with 2" shackles and three in blocks in the rear. i dont think wagoneer springs give much lift but i only had to trim a little bit in the rear to keep from rubbing anything.
