  1. And the lift shackle only gave me a little more than an inch of lift. Sent from my SM-N970U1 using Tapatalk
  2. When I did this I understood that it would just bring me back to stock ride height, which for many can be up to 3 inches from sag. Sent from my SM-N970U1 using Tapatalk
  3. I lied, I measured old stock shackle at 4.25 inches eye to eye and new ones 7.5 inches. Still doesn't seem like much tho. But looking g at before and after, looks much better.
  4. If i remember it was 4 inches more than the stock shackle.
  5. Finished the install new GS metric leafs, but I added the chevy lowering shackle kit. Looks like 10.5 from top of axle to bottom frame.....
  6. Thanks for the input guys, much better with washers, finally finished/torqued down. Got to go for a ride and it was good. Prob not for the guy that crashed his Corvette C3 into a pole on an empty 3 lane road tho. Sent from my SM-N970U1 using Tapatalk
  7. Thanks guys! Lowes run it is, thankfully it's only .5 of a mile away
  8. Yea the threading looks like it might be a little short, but to get it on the road I think ill torque down for now. Appreciate the replies!
  9. I haven't torqued it down yet, but it looks like if I do it will bend the shackle in some. Should I use some washers or just torque down. Thanks

  11. I leaned on the tailgate putting something away and it had bounce. Had to bounce it up and down of course since its never done that before. Sent from my SM-N970U1 using Tapatalk
  12. Got the leafs in, driver side was much easier, GS must of made the alignment hole bigger, fit perfect. 10.75 inches from top of tube to frame and thats with a 2 inch lift shackle.....
  13. Yea, seized in metal sleeve, got passenger side out, but need new u hardware also, ubolts, bolts. Plates are good. Lining that center pin up is a pain also, any tricks? Sent from my SM-N970U1 using Tapatalk
