drop shackles for fj75 ute.

Post by Hardzy »

looking at purchasing a 3 inch efs kit to suit the crusier with shocks, castor plates, u bolts etc. just wondering if the drop shackles are worth while getting aswell while im doing the suspension. it will save me buying shocks agains in a few months.

any good or bad things about them? i cant see any problems with them but i have never had them. thanks

also if someone has a better kit that they know of than the 3 inch efs kit for flex please let me know

useless, gimmecky unless your prepaired to spend alot more building your suspension around it.

great for ramp queens, does SFA in the real world, apart from open up on side angles, unload on climbs, and generally make the rig less stable than it should be.

playing with your springs on it now, then getting them reset once you find the right spring rate with longer main leaves will get better flex than an off the shelf lift kit.
