Hey all, OSS here;

After purchacing "2" lift shackles" from a Canadian distrubtor on the west coat, I was looking forward to the weekend project. However today, I received my parcel, ripped it open and was shocked at what I saw.

I'm pretty sure I was sent drop shackles...

Can you get a pic of that uh thing, stuff... oh wtf is it are they... INSTRUCTIONS! yeah those things I glance at, read 2 lines & go pffft don't need em!

Looking at my shakles I can't see how those would work with a blazer. Ours fit around the leaf & frame, not in either.

The instructions are full of spelling errors lol..
"Place Jack under pumkinand raiserear end to relieve pressure on shocks. Remmoce shicks frim mounts and loer jack to relieve pressure on springs"

Just called the seller, and indeed they are the wrong order, they are purolatoring parts that fit S10's today.

Those look like lift shackles for a full size truck, the shackles point upwards on those (essentially the frame hangs on the leaf spring, if you get what I mean...) and they look shorter than what I have on my Sierra currently.
