Rear Spring Shackle Flip

Postby Collers9640 » Mon Sep 14, 2015 6:46 pm

I'm looking to do a shackle flip on my rear springs to get rid of my stacked lift blocks, I looked at Jungke's but they quite pricey, does anyone know if of another vehicle that has shackles that will work on our trucks?

IIRC, find a set of the front hangers and use them on the rear, invert the shackle. I think I seen that on RCC years ago. One or two of the bolts line up, but drill a few holes and you'll be in business.
