Lol I was thinking more like $20. $35's a lil much for an old set of shackles you'll prolly never use.

 

[Silverbullet08]

[Trupiano]

Ok, $35 it is. What's your paypal email address?

why do you need stock shackles?

I bought 2 Stock new ones for $85 and tossed the old ones out cause the bushings were cracked, but x 2 why do you need those?

If you look in his other thread, he installed his lowering kit and now the ass sits to low with the drop shackles so he want stock to make it level

 

[Trupiano]

Im putting the stock shackles on so I can go lower. Right now I love how it sits, but I'd like 1 more inch of drop. The mcgaughy's rear shackle hanger is 7 inches long from upper bolt hole, to lower bolt hole. The OEM stock ones are about 5 inches. So If I change the mcgaughy's one with the OEM one, I should get about an inch of drop... then I can just lower my front torsion bars a lil to achieve the inch of drop I want all around. Then once I find some lowering keys, Ill replace them, so I still get the handling I want.

If you find lowering keys let me know where you find them.

 

[Trupiano]

The ground force kits have them... but Im not paying $800 for the kit, just to get the lowering keys.

These are the only ones I can find. But they dont specify how much drop they give.

Not bad for $50 bucks. Im gonna call them tomorrow and ask about them.

The whole kit just for the keys isn't happening, thats for sure.
