Bare with my lack of knowladge as this is my first post and im not very mechanically inclined at all >_< So i bought these 1.5"-2" RC shackles off of craigslist for 20 dollars, seemed like a good enough deal. However, the guy only had 2 bolts, 4 washers, and 1 nut for one of the bolts. I plan on buying 1.5" poly spacers, but want to get the rest of the hardware for the shackles before anything. Also, would i be able to run a Zone 3" suspension kit stacked with this budget boost without worrying about driveline anangles. My ultimate goal is to fit my 32x11.5x15 maxxxis bighorns without worrying about rubbing. I already took off my flares and trimmed the fenders a bit, and am perfectly fine with cutting more if need be.
TLDR; where can ii buy lift shackle hardware? What suspension kit should buy to go with the BB to fit 32x11.5 bighorns with trimming? Can i run 32x11.50 on offset wheels with only a zone 3" kit and trimming?

Go to a hardware store. Do you have an ACE hardware?
Definitely get the zone kit first. See if the tires rub the fenders. If so, cut higher or bumpstops farther
If you don't want to cut more then just get a 1" BB. You will most likely have to tweak your driveline to stop the vibes

Are you talking about the large bolts? rockauto carries them as well as dealership. alternatively you could always clean up your existing ones with a wirebrush if you already have your old shackles out.
