The Gent's on Naxja swear by the relocation boxes. IIRC they give you about an inch of lift plus whatever shackle you end up running.

i got these for Christmas. unfortunately there still sitting in my room, uninstalled. but, i've heard nothing but great things and like mentioned before everyone who runs them swears by them. they give you a phenomenal shackle angle.

Ok so if I understand......

The relocation brackets will allow me to basically change my shackle angle with what I have now (springs and shackles) giving me a better ride and better flex?

Also they may add lift also? Depending on install?


My thinking now, to receive my 6.5 inches I roughly want i could do a 4.5 inch leaf and ironman4x4 shackles?

I wish I could just get a grasp on this

the general rule is the longer and flatter the leaf pack, the better ride and performance it will have.

Ok im really looking into the relocation kit and adjustable shackle so i can get a better shackle angle, and also try and achieve a more level look from front to rear...but thats always the hope now isn't it?

Anyone ever run the RC 1.5-2" adjustable shackle at the 1.5" setting? Im trying to find out if the extra length of tab for the shackle at that setting will hit the shackle mount bracket and make a clunking sound.

Don't mean to bring it up again, what if I did the adjustable shackle and like a 4.5 inch leaf with no boxes? Would it be a better ride then a 6.5 and regular shackle?

I just want to make sure I do it right.
