94-02 Dodge LD 4 inch shackle reversal

Description: 94-02 Dodge LD 4 inch shackle reversal Lift the rear of your truck without using stiff lift springs or axle wrap causing lift blocks! Applications: 1994-2002 Dodge Ram LD 1500 (leaf spring and bushing measure 3.25" at hanger) What is a shackle reversal? Currently the rear of your truck has a tension style shackle hanger (shackle points towards sky). Our shackle reversal replaces that stock bracket with a much stronger bracket that points the shackle towards the ground creating lift. Everything else about how your truck rides is kept the same! What are the benefits of a shackle reversal? Typically, a truck is lifted with either a lifted spring or a lift block. A lift spring uses a higher spring rate resulting in a stiff lumber wagon ride. A lift block add more leverage causing axle wrap/hop under acceleration. Lift blocks are also notorious for falling out and causing terrible accidents. A shackle reversal allows you to keep your stock spring rate and does not have the hazards of using a block. Some auto manufactures came stock with blocks in the back. The shackle reversal can replace those blocks allowing more traction for towing, off-road, or fun burn outs! NOTE: With our Shackle Reversal you can re use your stock shackle! Will a shackle reversal affect how my truck handles or tows? Nope! It will drive just like it does now, in fact many newer heavy-duty trucks are running compression style hangers like the shackle reversal for your truck. Also if you are replacing your current blocks with a shackle reversal expect it to handle way better! No more extra leverage on those leaf springs causing axle wrap. How easy is it to install a shackle reversal on my truck? Very easy! For a more in depth install with pictures check HERE Safely lift/jack truck up and put on jack stands. Make sure to use proper safety gear and equipment Locate rear shackle hanger and remove shackle/leaf spring from it Remove rivets holding shackle hanger on frame. This can be done super fast with an air chisel. Another method is using a cutoff wheel to cut an X in the rivet. Then take a hand chisel to the heads to remove them. Bolt in shackle reversal and torque bolts to 38 FT/LBS. NOTE: SHACKLE REVERSAL OFFSET GOES TOWARDS FRONT OF TRUCK! Bolt in leaf and shackle into the reversal. The rest is reverse of removal. After driving 100 miles make sure to re-torque bolts Note: Adding a shackle reversal may change pinion angle in some cases, If you do need to correct your pinion angle a shim is usually all it takes to correct. Shims can be purchased at most drive shaft shops. Note: The bracket lift height is based off of what you are at now. So for example if your truck came with a 2" block and you use a 4" reversal bracket it would be 4" lift keeping the block. If you remove the 2" block you will end up with 2" of lift above stock (4" reversal - 2" block = 2" lift). HOG TIP: Shackle reversals will typically move the axle forward some, so use one of these axle relocation plates to get it where you want click HERE HOG TIP: Looking to gain more lift in the rear? Use a set of our 2" lift main eye brackets! Used in conjunction with our shackle reversal you can gain 6" of lift!
