I'm lifting my 84 pickup. I'm running 86 rear leafs up front and f-150 rear leafs in rear.want to run 5.5" boomerang shackles in the front. what length shackles do I run in the rear? Also if anyone knows what length shocks people run with that setup?

all depends on where you put your shock mounts. I have 6" shackles in the rear. Most guys run a 12" or 14" shock up front and a 12" in the rear if you are trying not to cut into the bed.

I'ma run shock hoops in the front and a low rand off road upper shock mountsin the rear. I've welded the lower mounts on the rear axle beside the leaf Perch. My truck is a flatbed so I've got plenty of room under the bed.
