every vehicle is a little different. you should probably get the axle shims though

i don't think add a leaf kits come with a shim. all of the leaf packs do, but they cost a lot more too. most of the time, add a leaf kits won't change the drive angles too much. how much lift are they claiming?

2-2 1/2" of lift

Aftermarket leaf packs usually have the pinion angle adjustment built into the arch.
