Topic: Ready to Lift ????'s

[SLIVER]

Hey guys, I am getting ready to lift my 85 4Runner and need some advice. I am doing the MC 4" front and rear springs and was wondering what size shackles for the front and rear I should get? Also do I need the offset shackles?, and What should my shackle angle be??
Thanks a ton for the advice and I'll post up some pic's when I get er' done.

offset shackles? do you mean front spacers?

[SLIVER [OP]]

No I was talking about the MC shackles that are wider at the frame side and more narrow at the spring side.

yeah thats my point, most people just run the straight shackles with spacers on the bottom bolt

If you have a 4Runner, I would recommend getting 5" springs for the rear, so with the added weight of the top it will sit level... I am running 4's front and 5's rear.. sits perfect.

sure does, that's what came with my kit, everything for the front is sold in the solid axle section, you get the cross member shackles frame jig (which you wont need) and those spacers your lookin for...

Sweet, thanks a ton. So for my other question, what should my shackle angle be on the front and rear? Also what length of shackles should I get for the front and rear??

Thanks in advance

Shackle angle should be near 15 degrees..
