I used to think that too. I remember reading somewhere or being told though that it works like I posed though.

Hangers are gone. Shackles are still up for grabs. I'll take 125.

Thanks again Big Kel, very nice product, easily worth WAY more than the price you let them go for.

Much appreciated brother

Yeah, we already touched on it a little but if I'm at kartek and somebody needs trinkets other than 3.5 bypass, I'm usually down to grab em. Hard to shoot up there when it's far away AND you got kids. Hope to see the bronc in real life soon

The most important thing they do is increase the cool factor. ;) Second, they increase strength. Last but not least is more travel.

The alleviate spring bend to a point also. I did it for the droop numbers and ride height drop.

So how far down does the bracket you make drop the rear hanger? Any how I remember from my Fj40 days-- for every inch down the shackle goes the lift is cut in half-- is that basically how it works in reverse?

I kind of like the idea of dropping the rear mounts a couple inches-- retaining the factory springs, then at some point adding some Go faster rear springs and then use some longer shackles.

The shackle/hanger combos I make are designed to keep the ride height as low as possible without having to cut the floor. My shackles are 7.25" or 9" center to center.
