Extended Shackle Questions
I have bought some extended shackles, I am wondering if I need any other mods to fit them.
My truck is 2" lifted shocks and springs, but I want to get that bit extra out of it. How easy are shackles to fit, and will I need any other parts installed to get them to work, brake lines etc? Thanks guys

- http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/...l#Installation May need to add a shim to the axle to correct the pinion angle, depending on shackle length and drive shaft type: - http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/...es.shtml#FAQ12 Measure for the shocks and brake lines, etc. See if any of them are getting pulled tight at full droop. If so, replace with something longer.
