Well I welded a little piece of metal across the top of the lower shackle, so when the top shackle is at full droop that piece of metal I have welded will keep it from inverting. Havent even been able to drop the second shackle down yet. My tires hits my fender before the other tires fully drops. ![Smilie](https://www.yotatech.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Gotta do some cutting. lol

Yeah, when I was first doing my research, I didnt really get any good info on the setup so I decided to do it myself. If I dont like it, then I can always switch to a single shackle. Simple as that. lol
I used chevy 63" springs -yotaman85

Well I bought the top shackle from Sky's offroad design and the lower shackle is a lowering shackle for a Chevy truck. Got the lowering shackle from Autozone fo 30 dollars. Good price if you ask me. lol
For the top shackle, most people use a Jeep lift shackle, but I chose to use the one from Sky because I already had it. lol I just used a spacer to make it even
