My question is, without changing shocks or shimming, or adjusting. Did anyone simply bolt on the Shackle Kit, AND ARE YOU HAPPY WITH IT, ???

 

Rob
I had just the shackles until a couple of weeks ago when I installed the front springs. This was the first mod I did, within weeks of getting my truck. Very easy and cheap mod, makes the truck sit 100% better. I would highly recommend this one. here is a before and after pic:

Thanks JR,
Awesome before and after Picture, Exactly what I was after.
Thanks Pal, and BTW, nice Lightning.

Rob,
Here's one with the front 1" drop. I'd go for the whole 1/2" action.

 

Nice Look, I like it, I like it.
The front is oviously a little harder of a job than the simple rear shackles. Since I do everything myself, I'll save that for a later Mod. This bluestone driveway of mine is killing me AND MY BACK
Hey JR, are those chrome rims you have now in that picture.
DAM I WANT THEM

 

Yep, I just put them on, nothing else. I couldn't tell any difference in ride, I like them since it leveled out the truck.

 

Rob,
yep, chrome '00 wheels straight from Ford Racing in Michigan...gotta love 'em... JR

have you gotten that RFI deal from clarion yet? I am still waiting for a reply.....

 

No RFI yet, I'm surprised considering they said it shipped out already ???? I'll let you know when I get it.
Nice rim's I'm gonna check into that too.

 

Rob,
you've got mail...JR

 

I too have done just the 2" BellTech drop shackle kit, and it was worth the 50.00 + my time to put them on. It sure does level out the truck.

 

Just the 2" shackles. Truck Traks, and a driveshaft loop.

OK, do the L's come with ANY type of rear shackle stock??? I looked at mine today and noticed that I already have these on the rear of the leaf springs already. Maybe the prior owner put them on. They look exactly like the picture, just a bit dirty. I always wondered why my rear end didn't seem to have much of a racked look to it, maybe now I know why.

Thx

 

they all come with shackles, these are longer to lower the truck.. You replace the stock ones with these....JR

 

Ahhhhhhh, OK, thanks

 

The stock ones do not look exactly like the ones in the picture. If yours do, dirt aside, you've already been dropped.
