Does anyone have any input on the idea of making my own leveling shackles out of 1/4" mild steel?
What is the distance bolt to bolt on the shackle to achieve 2 " of lift ? Put in New F code rear springs and it didnt lift the rear back to level.
 






Take the bolt to bolt distance on your current shackles and add 4” to get 2” of lift.
 






Excellent! Thank you!
I appreciate the input immensely.
I'll add pics if I achieve this with satisfactory results.
