Sounds about right. Might have been 65 plus the 10 shipping...honestly cant remember. Theyre comparable in price to the Daystar ones, but at a much better quality That goes for Synergy too though!

North Raleigh out by 540, but I'm down around NCSU most of the time. And I'm pretty easy to pick out of a traffic jam


I noticed the ride height difference...whacked my foot on the door sill trying to get in the first time! No real ride change...if you install them right, it should be the same ride as stock, just higher. Now the t-bars...yes you notice that.

ok, hey, did you have to use a shime when you installed the shackle? synergy finally has some shackles, but they are not making any in the 1.5" yet. 3 leaf fab still doesn't have any.

I have some daystar shackles on my blazer. I found the holes drilled for them could have been a little bigger and cleaner. It was a very tight fit and had a few burrs that messed up the threads on my bolts. Other then that i havent had any problems with them, but i will admit i only got daystars because synergy were all out.

yeah, see, i don't want to do that because i really do like both of the shackles i was talking back. i like the fact that they are custom made for our trucks. i really don't want to get a universal for that fact. and i am in a time crunch. so i need them now before i get my tires.
