Forgive me if this is something basic, but I've never had a leaf suspension vehicle before. Does it matter if the shackles are a different height than the leafs?
I have an Ironman 2 inch leaf lift (the toy060c kit specifically) but the shackles are 6 inch from the leaf pin center to frame pin center. The shackles say "dune" on the side but I can't find them on internet anymore so they may be cheapo things.
My local shop says shackles with radically different heighth from leafs aren't a good idea and suggest I switch them out to keep bushings and connectors from wearing out too quickly. Honestly, I need to switch them with something lower anyway because the HJ61 scrapes the garage if I use too much gas and it gets light in the rear.
There are too many options for shackles Out there. Any suggestions for a 3-4 inch lift that are sturdy? Just something not as low as stock but not over 4 inches.
