installed my new ebay shackles this weekend. they were beefier than i expected. i totally recommend.

 

Whats the secret to getting the old bolts out??

 

looks good! How about an overall shot of the truck?
And the secret to getting the old bolts out is a lot of patience, penetrating fluid, hammers, and if necessary a torch. Oh, and beer is optional

 

best way to free them bolts? FIRE!

 

oh yeah sorry.....here ya go. Oh and the secret to the bolts is to back the nut all the way out, then crank the bolt with a big 1/2 inch breakover until you can spin it pretty easily. Then i was stumped for a while, so i baught a big pitman arm puller (big fork), and it was enough to back it out. but yeah.....you godda be patient





now i just need some meaty tires

 

Looks good! Can't wait to get mine

 

is this a 1.5 or 2" lift,.........good thinking on the forks.

 

its a 2". i cranked the t-bars like 1.5" so it squated from the rear a bit, so a 2" was perfect to level it out
