Which shackles?

I have looked an many posts and not quite seeing what I am looking for. The AC Shackles are the ones I am looking to order today. My only question is should i get the adjustable ones or not?

Don't get the adjustables....they hinder your rear clearance and will get easily hung up on rocks. I have not really heard many positive reviews (more of like neutral then they decided to ditch the adjustables and and get the regular PML shackles).

I had regular PML shackles and they did the job and I can tell you just about every modded first gens have the regular nonadjustable shackles.

Thanks a lot! Thats all I needed to know! Order is placed.....NOW

Wish I had seen this a week ago....I ordered the adjustable....

I would think you can exchange them? If they are not used obviously.

Edit: I just called the guy there named Chris and he said as long as they have not been installed he said you can exchange them.

I just emailed him. My order hasn't shipped yet so I'm hoping we can swap them and he can give me $25 back for the difference.

I'm sure he will. He said allow 3-4 days to ship.

The shackles are made to order. That's why it takes so long. It's been 11 days so far.

Interesting its taking so long. Maybe the adjustable need more work? Oh well hope the fix you up

Never order adjustable shackles .. Waste of money and you will never raise or lower them.
