Shackle advice

Post by Richie » Mon Jan 14, 2013 8:19 am

Im swapping my standard springs for rascle ones and rears up front which should hopefully give me 2 inches of lift from standard?

If so i can finally get rid of my lift shackles! How ever i cant find standard ones, so i guess i could make some standard length ones from my lift shackles.

Anyone know the length between the bolt holes on standard shackles front and rear please?

70mm but there's no reason why you can't run something a tad longer say 80-90mm if wanted.
