I've searched and found reference to DesertRat and LMC and Tellico4x4, but it seems they've raised their pricing or are not the most competitive? :confused:

I need to order my WAR153 shackles this week and appreciate any quick direction! Thanks,

The Ebay knock off's are pretty good I paid $50+shipping. You'll need to get new bolts though. The side plates are 1/4" thick and the stock bolts will be too short.
 












do a search for the thread called, Minnesota , and shackles, i just put a set of those on my Ex and there is a link to the pictures, , and a link to the ebay page, , he ships fast and they are very well built, you can even use the stock bolts you remove to put them on,

Thanks for the help, guys. I actually wound up going with the Warrior 153s at desert rat for $82.49 shipped. Should have them on next week, along with new leafs and a little TT. We'll see how it goes! :D

Thanks, hoping so... also getting the itch for some 31's now, but there's nothing wrong with the nearly-new Toyo 235/75/15's that are currently on it. :p:

I want to go with 265/75 16's on mine. Too bad the current tires have so much tread left. I'm so damn impatient. I know how you feel.

That's the size on our Durango. I just took a set of treads off of it with 90% life left because I wanted to get into a set of BFGs on it. :p

Haha, I want BFG's too. They really would complete the look I'm going for. I'm just too poor right now to swap out good tires
