hi all,
Does anyone on here still make extended shackles that add about 2 inches? I am just looking to get hold of two of them.

Please let me know (or tell me what are some of the good commercial brands if anyone has had any experience with them)

I was cruising snake racing and bbm yesterday looking for diff guards but they both had extended shackles!

I made mine for under $10 all you need id flat steel with some square tube in the welded in the middle! It's not hard at all!

Make them as said $10-20 bucks worth of steel , you don't really need to brace them if you use 8-10mm bar if you cant get hold of a welder and you want to brace them 2 bolts and some crush tube in the middle of the shackle , better than paying $195 a set

check the nbs forums. i got a set for 150 from fatzook on there.
i am happy with em. i dont have a welder or access so was heaps easier.
there is a template for em on suziinfo.com i think..
