3" drop shackles for 04-08's?
 
Anyone know of any out there?

2" drop is the longest you have before you run into the bottom of the bed on the 04-08 trucks

4.6 Punisher Dec 29, 2010 09:36 PM

Damn. The back will still be about 2" higher than the front.

Plenty of 3" lowering leafs. What drop are you going for?

Patman is correct. You need to use another method to drop. I had shackles on and it sucked do to the fact it never sat level.

I might have to go with a leaf kit then. I want it to sit level, especially when I get my new wheels and tires.

Eibach makes a 3" leaf. They may be stiffer than you're wanting though.

Check the fine print, that's for one leaf spring pack, not two.

dang i hate fine print that sucks heck i was thinking about buying them and swapping my flip kit for these and lowering shackles

I got my 3" Eibach leafs for around ~$250 shipped I think, can't really remember... Not running them now, sold them, using GF 4" leafs.

wow and free shipping

Three inches in the back won't quite level it out. It's close but noticeable, IMO.
