I bet it rides like a dream with that 90 degree shackle angle

If you redrill and mount the shackle hanger forward, you can gain alot more travel. You lose a touch of lift. But worth it.

How far forward and is this for 52 and 56in springs

@@eeanpitcock874 This is for any leaf spring. I like the shackle to sit at an angle away from the leaf. How much angle depends on the rig and what you are trying to accomplish. Just be sure that the shackle will not invert backwards.

Where did you get the rear shack plate? Or did you just make it from 4" , 1/4" wall angle? Thanks, -Big.

Hey Ben or anyone else out there, when doing a shackle flip, do you have to replace the front of the leaf springs shackles too?

Ray Flores no, but you might wanna consider buying a zero rate add a leaf to slide the axle back 1” since the shackle flip kit pushes the axle 1” toward the cab. the zero rate pushes it back to the center of the wheel well

Why didn't you just reuse the stock shackle Mount take the torch cut a hole where the shackle mounts to the mount and just invert the shackle put it through the hole it's pretty common and works well

Metric is for people who count with their fingers. Computers haven't been using base 10 since the 1940s. Why is that?
