Been pretty busy lately and haven't had anything new on the truck in a while, threw in these lift shackles I got off eBay a couple weeks ago. Got about 1 inch in the rear, which is what I was looking for. Figured it might be a little better than a taller block.

looks good man, how much for the shackles, sounds like a good alternative to blocks or AAL

Nice man. I'm diggin the subtle changes to that truck. The grille, badges and HD lights do it just right.

not bad, that would be a good way to get a little bit of rake back, i might consider these someday, was the install and everthing good, they designed good?

by the way your truck is one of my favorites on the forum its great man, i love the badges

Coner

Install is super easy, 2 bolts per side, can't really say much about the design, they're so simple it's probably the same way I would have designed such a part. Hell if you got some fab skills you can just cut out a section of the stock shackle and achieve the same effect.

Badges turned out good hopefully they stay that way

yea i know theyre just shackles lol if there built out of the right stuff they should be fine, i want to do the badges but ill have to wait, where did you get the paint for them at??

Coner

I just got a can of paint marked as dark shadow grey from advanced, think it was duplicolor. Matches close enough for me
