These are what I have on my 4runner
I could not buy what I wanted so I made these
The pins are machined with a shoulder so the bushes cant be crushed and they are adjustable at about 2" and 4" at the spring end or about 1" or 2" chassis lift

Yes I can make some more shackles
It will be a while as I will have to get more pins machined, drilled and grease nipples fitted also make the plates and then get them cab coated
I sell them for $366 inc gst [ 4 shackles to a set ]
If anyone from this board wants any, $320 inc gst
I can also make them for the 60 and 75 landcruiser
I have been driving around, including a trip fron Perth to Melbourne, using these on my 4runner for about 6 years

now the disclaimer
These are for off road use only
