Hyper shackles and a hi lift

SO last night I was finishing up tightening the Anti Wrap bar and decided to see if what I had made would work. My biggest concern was that with the rear axle fully extended would the shackle on the AWB be long enough. I took some pics to see and also a few of the SOA and Hyper shackles in action just for the hell of it. I'm pretty pleased.

sitting normal

The bumper at this height is 26 inches off the gound


36"


36" was the maximum I could get without a wheel comming off the ground

I'm thinking I may need longer shocks.

The front was about normal for a SOA



And here are the hyper shackles in action





And here is the reason I did all this in the first place to check the shackle position.

normal


with the rear extended



As you can see there is not a whole lot of movement maybe an inch or so. So I think I will shorten the shackle and move the bottom Hiem joint up and more out of the way.
