Brackets
They are commonly added when changing the location of your slide rail and the stock ones either are not in the correct spot or not long enough for the new location. Often when the chaincase is rolled and the suspension moved back you can just move the stock ones back in the tunnel. Sometimes after doing that they will not be long enough to be able to keep the rear cross shaft the same distance from the top of the tunnel. In that situation you will need longer ones to be able to maintain the original geometry of the slide rail.
Most stock ones will handle minor changes so unless you are doing something big then you don't need different ones.
Refer to you owners manual or the stickers under the hood for recommended changes and limits.

4" omg! then again your on a turbo....
On a stock sled you shouldn't need them unless it's a mtn cat. Pre M series had a bad track angle setup from the factory. The drop brackets from cutler and sledjunky corrected the bad stock angle and made the skid sit level with the ground.
Contact Smitty, he makes some really nice drop brackets and will be able to set you up properly.
