I'll be doing this in the near future, I believe before I do the AAL.

From what I can tell I need the 9/16 bolt holes for my 2000?

I just read many posts where people had to re-drill existing holes of the shackles they purchase online.

What are the best to just open the box, and install?

Cheers fellas.

You need 14 mm bolt holes. Very early WAR-153 shackles were drilled at 13mm because of a miss-measure from the person on EF that was helping them get dimensions. It was quickly fixed and the WAR-153 has had the correct 14mm hole for many years. It can be a tight fit thanks to the powder coating but you don't need to "drill" the hole out any more.

Thanks a bunch.

Cheers!
 






That's what I'm running on my '03 Sport Trac that's lifted. Great product.
 






My '01 Sport has them too, First thing I did when I got the truck over a year ago
