Just finished the driver side relocation bracket. So when I flex the springs it hits in the shackle. Is this normal?

Looks you need to adjust the shackles rearward another hole or maybe two....

Thanks Dustin, my names Chris by the way, I'm doing the passenger side now so I'll try one hole forward and see how that goes. Ultimately I don't want the shackle to bottom out on the bracket though?

Nice, I tried making it to the m&g but couldn't swing the gas(I live about 2 1/2 hours away). Really wanted to meet a bunch of you guys though.

So got the shackles done....thanks for the advice Dustin, they look much healthier now! Just gotta finish the rear break line and bleed the breaks and this ride is ready!

Will those relocation brackets work with the stock shackle?

They should no problem, go to hdoffroadengineering.com and the install instructions show it with the stock shackle. Very easy to install as well. Very happy with the set-up!

I'll be doing those as well next week. Contemplating doing the bearings as well.
What bushings?
