anyone know where I can get just a hanger for the rear? I already have a shackle I'm using with my lowered leafs, thinking of swapping in the stock leafs and useing shackle/hanger for 4" - my leafs now are flimsy

where did you find 3" lowering shackles. i have only seen 2".

I got them from my buddy who runs a local speed shop, they had 2 sets of holes in, so i measured them compared to stock and the farther hole was 3", box said 2" but the were 3". I get the brand and let you know. Later

Bag it.

Hauls as much as I want without sagging, rides however i want, goes however high or low i want. Plus I dont have to deal with so much wheel hop due to axle wrap.

I just ordered some for mine. I have the Belltech drop leafs shackles and I'm adding the Belltech 2" hangers to get a 7" in the rear so it will sit perfectly level and have no rake. I got them from Stylin Concepts here: http://www.stylinconcepts.com/part.c...=30&lc=pfpartt This is the Shackle and hanger kit. I couldn't find just the hangers. I'll just sell the shackles.
