Any wheel/tire shop, the dealer, brake shops, muffler shops, any garage really. I'd go to someone who does them frequently. You don't want your truck to be "practice" for someone lol.

An alignment should cost about $50, depends on the shop, but thats a good estimate. As for shackles, I personally wouldn't go with the ones from Advance Auto, they're cheap. I bought mine off of ebay and they're very solid and I got them for about $40. If you know a guy who is good at welding, get him to build you some up, wouldn't take long at all.

its just always a good idea to get an alignment after you alter your front suspension.

ya Im running 31s with the standard T-bar/shackles on my truck and I don't have any rubbing what so ever. Do the alignment right away because, it will kill your tires if you don't, and get vibrations at certain speeds.
oktain- ya the sig was done by a genius, love it

Since the bases of the control arms are not on the same plane vertically, one is slightly longer than the other so that at the wheel hub, they are right on top of each other. Once you adjust them more than the stock angle they don't line up correctly and an alignment can help fix that.
I'm not sure where I found this picture but it illustrates it well, You can see how much of an angle the CV shafts are and you can also see the negative camber of the wheels. While it may not LOOK that bad, it will wear out the inside edge of your tires pretty quick
