Re: Extended Shackles
 

Any concern over laternal flex? Especially with you;) , there's going to be lots of stress on those in all directions and do you think 1/4" plate will have the strength to not bend out of alignment (ie left and right, not forward/backward). They look well built (I like the box design better than the standard H-pattern on other shackles). I dunno what other H3 shackles are using, but 3/8" seems extra beefy and wouldn't add too much weight. Just a thought...

Re: Extended Shackles
 

I think the boxing takes care of that. If you saw what the stock ones are made out of....:rolleyes:

It looks like you need another main leaf. You can see it bending in the side picture of the shakle

Re: Extended Shackles
 

They looked like that before. Those are brand new springs. I am going to add a leaf. I'll get some more info today on that.

Re: Extended Shackles
 

I figured I missed something. I wasn't blessed enough to be part of the Hummer world till this year. Looks awesome.

Re: Extended Shackles
 

'cept these....

add 1500 lb to payload, (provided you have the HD Shocks) and they are adjustable. The springs are Progressive.

Re: Extended Shackles
 

Sweet, those look like they would fit on around Hunners skids.

Re: Extended Shackles
 

One way to find out. They might touch. Those extra bolts.
I know what you can add though now you gots the jacked up rear hanger thingys. Do you have a gun rack and CB?cause you would fit in reeel good roun here.

Hey bebe, guess you may have heard the 08 Alpha TBs will be heavier for the V8. not sure of the pricing, but wanted to highlight it in the cases you opted for those over aftermarket ones;)
