Kevo93xlt

I have a 93 f150 2wd xlt. I'm planning to install a 2" drop shackle. Am I going to have to cut anything out for clearance? Thanks in advance.

if the bolts are free, you are good. they often seize to the metal sleeve in rubber bushings.

I finally got the 2" shackles on yesterday. I had to remove the braces that go to the lower bedside(2 13mm bolts), I also had to cut out the brace that is spot welded to the bottom of the bed and fold over a pinch weld on the bottom. Luckily the bolts where not a pain to get out just more cutting than I thought there would be. Thank you for your reply

hmmm, must be a different brand than i installed. i had to do nothing other than bolt them on. i did put the truck frame up on jackstands, then manipulated the rear diff with a jack.

Yeah I also used the jackstands and Jack method. They where just universal... oh well... they are on now....lol
