looking to gettig shackle relocators for my terrible angle. I already have 3.5 inches of lift in the rear and really dont want to go over 4.5 as i have 4.5 in the front. I was going to get rough countries but it looks like stock shackles wont work with them. And i cant find any shackles less than 1 inch that arent factory. I did find these though on ebay that seem to work with stock shackles. do they seem good?

I'd go with the HD Offroad Engineering Relocaters. I dont see any reason why they wouldnt work with stock shackles..once you find your desired hole location you can cut the rest of the hangar off to allow for more clearance.

The HD Offroad ones tie into the bottom of the unibody for additional strength. I have a set on my table ready to install sunday. Pure BEEF.

Remember that 1" longer shackles will not result in 1" of lift with the relocators because they won't be straight up and down.

the HD are straight bolt on right? I want to get onces that dont require any cutting. and the 1 inch only applies if it is a 90 degree angle?

HD has the lift and no lift relocators. I think the lift ones don't require cutting. And yes 1" applies at 90 degrees.

This is correct. The original shackle relocaters from HD are direct bolt on (you need to have factory nut strips or have a plan to attach it to the rear unibody)

The no lift relocaters require some minor cutting.

I have mine ready to install sunday along with a RE boomerang shackle.

I might also add that I have the HD no lift relocators and they're awesome. Well built, fit great and have a ton of adjustability. They require cutting your factory shackle hangers off and drilling a couple holes through the floor though.

Yeah i dont have factory nut strips. I might get the ebay ones because they look really nice and im curious lol

70hemicuda

well i bought the ebay ones. They just looked good to me and i was curious so we shall see how they are in person

Aside from not tying into the underside of the unibody like HD Offroads do, they look OK..

They mount up the same way the RC's do and Ive never seen anyone have a problem with them so we shall see. IF anything ill get them welded in
