Belltech6400 Shackle Kit

These replaced my current 2" drop shackles i got about 6 years ago from pepboys - bushing rotted out completely,I was getting weirdpopping sounds.This job isn't too bad, but I had to use a ratcheting tie down to get the leaf spring end back down. Hopefully these last long.Side note- don't torque these down while your truck is up in the air, get them snug then fully tighten once it's back on the ground...70 ft-lbs with threadlocker.

I put a inch coil spacer on the front of my 2001 Dakota quad cab and had to order this shackles to level the truck out. Was happy with the quality of the shackles they felt and looked heavy-duty. The hardest part was getting the old bolts out of the leaf spring bushings but once I got them out it was pretty easy to install the new shackles at the 2 inch height. Just put jack stands under the frame for safety and lifted the truck up with a 3 ton floor jack with a board under the spare tire and the 2 inch last holes on the shackles lined up great. I'm in Canada ontario and they came from the USA NY so the only thing was the wait for about 2weeks to get them to the door. But other then that I was very happy with the ride quality and the look that level the truck out.

La pieza es bastante sólida, el grosor de los componentes es comparable al OEM, la instalación es muy fácil y queda a la perfección, me dio la altura que decía en las especificaciones e incluso ahora se siente más flexible la suspensión, esto muy probablemente porque la OEM ya estaba muy vieja.

2006 ford ranger sport 4x4Installed easy, fit well and worked for what I needed.Lifted things up an inch or two.

Don't go with the cheaper version.. spend the $7 more and go with belltech.. installation is simple. Don't need to follow the instructions included . Jack up both sides and place jack stands on both sides of the frame till the rear end is up. Unbolt bottom shackle and remove bolt.. unbolt too shackle then have someone push the spring up till it clears the frame and remove bolt and take shackle out.. put the new one in.. I just had my wife lay down and push the spring up with her foot until I got the new one in. If you havent installed them before it does make a big difference in terms of looks.. may not be noticeable on camera but in person yes..
