Our lift and drop shackles are built in the United States from 1/4 inch plate steel and in most cases can accommodate a 1 or 2 inch adjustable height. Shackles are built to allow the rear leaf spring to move freely as the spring tension changes during driving conditions. Traditionally the front of the leaf spring mounts to what we call a leaf spring hanger. This is a stationary mounting point and as the leaf spring travels through its compression stroke it can widen at its mounting points due to its curvature. This is where the shackle steps in allowing that movement to transfer to the rear shackle and hanger assembly. So if your looking for a mild lift or drop in the rear without compromising your ride quality then shackles are the way to go.
