What's up fella's, I need a little help with a couple of questions I have. I was considering buying the 2" Shackles for my L. I really do not want to mess with the front suspension. If you put on the 2' shackles will it make your L completly level. It looks like to me 2' would make it sit lower in the back. This could just be my eyes playing tricks on me. I'm just wondering will it make it completly level. If any of you have pics of your L's with just 2' shackles please post them. Also, this may be a stupid question but if I put on the shackles and dont like the way it looks, can you take them off and get your truck back to stock position. Is this possible?Thanks guys.

 

I installed the belltech shackles and it makes the truck sit level. If ya dont like it, just remove the belltech's and reinstall your stock one's. Takes all of about 30 minutes.

 

On my truck, using the 2" shackles, it didn't lower it a full 2". My truck has a slight rake to it still, so it is not perfectly level.

You can easily put the stock shackles back on if you want. It's easy to do, I could probably do the swap in 10 minutes.

 

I got about a 1.5" drop from mine. Made the truck perfectly level

Before Shackles:


After Shackles:

 

I had a question also

I was thinking about the rear shackles. I found them for $50 on stylin concepts, Where is the best place and how much to get a kit that will give the L a 3/4"- 1" drop in the front. I like the 1" but i don't want it any lower at the front.

Any info would be appriciated.

Thank's

 

shackles only.



shackles, 2" springs up front, and the 'Dog mod.

 

a little tip
B4 you tighten the shackles up use floor jack and jack front end up = transfer weight to rear and then tighten the shackles= full 2 inch drop this way

i went wieh western chassis for under 37.00 to the door.
