Good value shackle

Fair enough, and my responses often carry some good natured sarcasm. Apologies if you’re unable to recognize that. My fault?


But, you did say that you need stock shackles. Ahem…. “Hey guys,
Any options on stock height shackles?
I don’t have my original ones anymore, and have currently CB+2. The extra lift is not welcome any more, so need to get stock shackles again. I’d get CB+0 if they would exist. Though David never responded to my email.
Any recommendations?”

My recommendation for a good value stock height shackle seems to hold water.

Hope you enjoy your day and don’t read too much into things.

 

That's a tough one. If I understand correctly you are added 2.1" over the standard (OEM) / stock height and you want to increase the height by no more than an additional (approximately) 0.500" = (0.625" (coachbuilder) - .125 (1/8" excess)) based on the previous post.

I think you'll find that's a very specific length and likely you'll need to work with a machine shop to custom fabricate a shackle, most are 1"+

It may be easier to use the CoachBuilder coilover strut /coilover shim to raise the front (offered in .50" intervals) than to try and machine or order a custom fabricated shackle (assumes iCoachBuilder +1 is more than desired (.625" of lift)). I doubt you'll notice .125" or less of deviation front to rear, especially if you have any load deviation from measured/baseline configuration.

You keep posting Dave hasn't responded to your email, but have you called? He's incredibly busy and trust me, one of the best humans in the business to deal with. I'm not sure you could work, or buy from a better person.

As was mentioned before, if you want a stock height shackle, Toyota is the best source, however you could combine the OEM with one of Dave's CoachBuilder Polyurethane Bushing Kits for the rear Leaf Spring Eyelets for extra performance.
