Due to interest I am making these shackle kits. I originally only made them for myself and some friends, but people saw them, liked them, and wanted some, so why not. Nothing fancy, just stuff that works: 3/8" side plates, poly bushings with bolt sleeves, spacers to get the shackle plates off the hangers and springs, grade 8 bolts that are properly shouldered on the shank through bolt shackle plates with grade 8 washers, lock washers, and grade C lock nuts. The shackles give 1/2" front lift and 3/4" rear lift and come with everything needed to install on all 4 corners. $190 shipped in the US, message for other locations.

Negative. I ordered 300 of them and have been waiting for awhile to complete another set of shackle kits. They make them to order which is why they are never in stock. I was told 12 weeks at the time, and right now expecting them in 2 weeks which is earlier than thought.

Since nobody has the poly bushings avible Im going to order some poly rods from mcmaster, carr.   and just turn them down and bore out the middle....  A 3ft peice of 1.5 in solid rod is about 20 bucks. shouldnt take long to turn out with a lathe.

I bought a set of these from Ryan, they are very nicely made.
