I want to see if the 2WD & 4WD rear springs use different shackles.
I need 2 more inches [i](don't we all )[/i]. This thing just sits too level and sags with my 5,500 lbs. worth of horses & trailer attached.
Airbags are on my list but am not sure if they provide lift above stock height.
New shackles could do the trick...especially since they are only about $15 each.

Monsta -- I'd go measure mine, but we have a N'oreaster blowin' in right now, AND Wilma is off our starboard coast. BTW, I'd bet money they're the same between the 2WD & 4WD. 40-degrees in TX? It was a balmy 62 when I walked outside at 5:30AM ... then it warmed up(???) to 53 by quittin' time. Have you considered a weight-distributing hitch for the horse trailer? |

I measure 4 1/2 inches bolt hole to bolt hole. Hope this helps. It is 61 degrees here. |
