Thanks, that makes sense...but the pic's kinda deceiving, isn't it? On a twist, I can get that rear clearance. Got one on flat ground?

Re: Extended Shackles
WOW! That makes the 35's look like 33's back there. SO that little bit should help a bit IMO. BEBE, I thought this thread was something complete different!!!!!!!!!

Re: Extended Shackles
Nice pieces. I've just send an email to Samco to see if I can order the same parts. It is not advertised on their website.
Lets wait and see.

Re: Extended Shackles
Interested to see how this turns out. Are these shackles available or were they custom made?
