A'ight, thanks

 

Quick question. When you try to fit 31's after the shackle and t bar crank, do you need to cut the fenders at all because of rubbing?

 

Depends on the offset of the rims & how much was the T-Bar crank & what length shackles. A "2" shackle (over stock) only gives you 1" of lift because it's only lifting 1/2 of the rear leaf spring
So a pair of shackles 2" longer than stock only equal 1" of rear lift.

 

So what mdehoogh did actually only gave him 1" rear lift?

 

I didn't measure the shackles before hand but they gave me almost exactly 2" of lift (meaning they were 4" longer than stock). You really don't need to bother with the exact measurements though unless you plan on making them yourself. If you see something listed as a "2 inch lift shackle", generally they mean it will give 2" of lift.

To answer your other question though, I did have to trim my front fenders.

 

so 2 inch shackles only give 1 inch lift?

 

If it's advertised as a 2" lift shackle, you'll get 2" of lift. If the shackle itself is only 2" longer than stock, you get 1" is the way I'm understanding it. Basically. the 2 inch lift shackles are 4 inches longer than stock.

 

Yup, you have to make sure about the distance longer than stock. 2" longer = 1" lift because it's only moving half the leaf spring.

 

yea i thought so that last reply got me confused lol

 

im going to be buying these 2

they look 2 inches longer then stock ( i hope )
