Trailing arm shackles? HELP...
So...as u can see I had drop shackles on the trailing arms. When I installed the DJM, they dont account for the arc as the arm drops, so the arms are too short, or the d-shaft is too long. Also, cutting the d-shaft and fitting it that way would mean the pinion angle wud rotate to a positive slope - never mind what it did to my pinion bearing...anyone know where to get the proper shackles, or am I a total zero and missing something?
Difference with or without is that it hooks up better with, but handling (carving) is no diff...

never heard of these before but looks like they are meant for lowered suvs with the trailing arms. have seen the suvs lowered before and the trailing arm angle is messed up bad and handling suffers. they are not meant for stock height vehicles. i would take them off before you ruin your tailhousing on your tranny or mess your driveshaft. take the brackets to someone who can fabricate another set with the trailing arm mounting further forward. take measurements before hand to determine how much. take in to consideration your pinion angle. good luck with them
