I have 2" terraflex shackles right now but I'm looking to run 1" shackles since I have the RC shackle relocation bracket. Extended shackles are killing my springs.

P.s sorry I forgot I'm in NYC and my build has pics but ill get one up in a lil

Why not just drill some fresh holes where you want them?

I was just pondering it. Tomorrow I have to refresh headlight terminals so ill get a ruler and see what an inch would put the holes at.

Guess I never thought of this

Sucks it wouldn't work. Terraflex puts there bolt joke right on the middle of the lower part of the shackles. Wouldn't be able to safely drill a hole above it.

Oh we'll back to looking for smaller shackles or just coming outta pocket
