i think they might make them for your vehicle but im not 100% sure, they are also american so you might have to import them.

Not true

They are legal if you can 'lock them off" of road use.

do a search in the zook section, there have been plenty of threads relating to drop shackles and i believe a template to have them lazer cut.

but in the locked position they'd have to be the same size (length) as whatever shackle the vehicle came with right???????

Otherwise they're an extended shackle which is a no no in Qld :?: :)
