Hey guys,
Just wondering if any one is running g-shackles in their leaf springs like these ones. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 1274158469

And is anyone running front swaybar disconects?

I have extended shackles on my triton, also have 32" tyres- so a few things that are illegal......maybe the above poster has as well?

not sure about that brand/ variant of shackle, would have to do some reading as to the "selling point" comfort etc

be keen to know if you have found anything on the swaybar disconnects for the triton?
You mention it in the thread title, but not in the post

The g shackles allow for extra droop because there are 2 stages im just wanting to know if anyone is running them? And on the disconnects was just wondering if anyone has them and where did they get them?

He is talking about drop shackles, not extended.

Drop shackles are only of use if you can get enough stroke out of your shocks. You would need special shocks to work with them as well as brake lines and ABS wiring. Have seen the work on a Sierra but nothing else, but they make for awesome flex on the rear.
Illegal in all states on road AFAIK.

They work like the drop shakles but arent the same because the drop shakles can twist where these cant. So should work on any leaf sprung car.
