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.
