WTB - 3" rear shackles Gen 1

[NMTerras]

Looking for rear shackles, specifically the 3" (1.5" additional height) non-adjustable ones like AC sells, with the square tube center brace...If you gots em, and you wants to get rid of them, let me know...

Are you trying to not fit in the garage anymore?

 

[NMTerras]

Yeah, the garage is pretty much done with the kayak rack on there but...I'm having some rear sag issues, planning on taking out the overload leaf, which will cost me a little more height, make up for it with the shackle, and then hopefully restore my stock rake

I gots a brand new set that I doubt I'll use.

Ditching the overload does nothing for height, I have a set also one of the bolts are stripped though

How so? Doesn't it reduce it by the thickness of the overload?

It's because the springs are under the axle, if it was over it would work as a block and add about .5" of lift but because we are spring under it doesn't do much of anything, all the lift comes from the other springs, I ditched mine about a year ago, nothing changed but a bit more flex, then I added the aal from prg for gen 2's

Duh...(me, not you)

Still gonna remove the overload. My ride is too stiff. And my rake is even, so I'm still going to consider a new shackle
