What is the TT lift and how is it done?

[skidogg73]

I searched around but did not see anything specific on the TT lift. If there is a thread for this please reply if not someone give me some insight on this and where can I get shackles too. My vehicle is a stock 96 XLT.

Thanks,
Rob

Call up Desert Rat or 4 Wheel parts and tell them you need Warrior part # 153 shackles. Most of them carry it but they don't show it online.

Thanks guys. Sounds pretty easy, easier than I thought. I have put lifts on my old Samuari and Cherokee but thought a simple lift for the explorer would be big pain. I was planning on putting 31's on I figuered a little lift would be better.
