Finally got my shackles made but i MAY have to go longer since i didnt get the lift out of them that i was expecting. It evened out pretty nicely though. I am sitting at 34 1/2 inches (from the bottom of the fender to the floor) in the front and 33 1/2 in the rear. I have pics, but havent had a chance to scan and post. I took pictures of the finished product and eveything. I think i did a pretty good job. I will post pics ASAP.

Really Cool!!

Those shackles look great?!?

Do you have the measurment?? I would be really interested in making my own shackles!!:bounce:

Nice work!!:smoke:
 






hey i got a trailer hitch on mine, think that would get in the way of the shackles???........i really cant remove the hitch because my dad still uses it to tow our boat around.
 






i dont think they would. if your shackles are not in the way now then longer ones shouldnt be either so i wouldnt worry about having the hitch.
 






Nice I like the finished look.
