    What leaf pack are you running currently? Also to answer your previous question that I completely missed, these are the medium duty leaf pack. You're running the archive relocation kit as well?

    Yes, mediums and they are awesome. I'm pretty much running everything Archive makes and just ordered the shackles for the trifecta. That Eric "guy" is awesome with his fab. And sourcing.

    Awesome. I was a little worried that the lift from the leaf pack would be too high but once I get some bed organization done for camp gear and possibly a 300lb wildernest camper, I probably won't have much of that lift left. Just the improved ride and travel.

    It's going to seem high at first. Let it settle and load it.

    Here's some of my AG stuff.

    Hey Sam, looking good
    We do have poly bushings that fit stock shackles, or we'll have 4.0 shackles done in 2 weeks.

    @FrenchToasty @alb1k Shackleton HD/MD are due soon (likely September now).
    Anyone wanting springs, we'll contact people on our waiting list soon to start taking orders. Email to get on our list if you aren't yet! And $100 off sale to!

    If I swap and I probably will - you got first right of refusal.

    Awesome thanks ! I emailed a few months back but I don’t know if I asked to be “put on the list” I will.
    I also plan on getting hammer hangers and u bolt flip kit along with leafs; do you recommend ordering everything at once when it’s in stock(for shipping reasons) or just order what’s in stock when I’m ready

    @Archive, my personal recommendation is that @FrenchToasty be placed at the top of all lists and everything ships ASAP.

    Now, if that messes up my shackle request, disregard completely. lol.

    Thanks Eric!
    How much do those shackles run? I might order those poly bushings in the interim so I can get everything back together.

    I sub'd to your build thread a while back. Love it. It's definitely an inspiration for my truck. I love the coastal front bumper with the tubes on either side. Any chance you want to come by and get these lower shock mounts welded on for me?? 12 pack per mount?

    I do everything Eric does. Except double cabs. Don’t want any back seat. Because that’s where accidents happen.

    The PO put about a 2.5" lift front and rear. I was thinking about taking the rear blocks out to level it. need to decide quick so I can go get an alignment.
