I'm running the relocation brackets and for awhile was running stock shackles, never had a problem with them hitting, just didn't feel I was utilizing the spring to its max potential. I ended up switching to JKS boomerang shackles. Nothing hits and great performance out of the rear. Will try to get a pic tomorrow
