ORD Rear SuperShackles

We have these:

So you don't end up with this:

After seeing some thrashed rear shackles, we decided a beefier system was in order.  These are folded and fully welded 1/4" steel with a .250 wall tube.  The back gusset is extended down the spring mounting "ears" to keep them from bending.  We also build them in different lengths for custom suspension applications.  The "short" length is 4.5" center to center which is the same as a '88-'98 GM and 1/2" longer than a '67-'87.  The "long" length is 6" center to center for improved shackle swing.

Looking for a nice flexible rear suspension?  Try our 6" SuperShackles with a '88-'98 GM truck spring and our 2.5" shackle flip kit.  This will net you a 4" lift with great suspension action and control.  This system was the choice of Petersen's 4Wheel and Offroad for the UAK10.

These shackle works on any GM or other vehicle with 2.5" wide springs and spring hangers in either tension or compression shackle applications.

Install these HD rear shackles with the open side to the front to prevent contact with the main leaf of the spring.

With deeper arch springs (6" or more lift) use the longer shackles and a shorter shackle flip.  An example would be a 12" total lift would use the 2.5" shackle flip, a 6" HD rear shackle and the 8" lift spring.  The longer shackle length helps keep the shackle from inverting to the front or back.  There's nothing wrong with the 2.5" flip / 6" HD shackle combo for shorter lifts either but it's essential for taller springs.
