What i was saying at the top is for every 2" of shackle you put on, you get 1" of lift, so to get 2" of lift u need 4" shackles

Fireimp, Ol buddy that's true. BUT a 2" lift shackle is 4" taller that stock. ie. a 2" lift shackle will LIFT your truck 2". that was what I was saying.  :idea:

I dont think they are supposed to bend like that either there negative arched but they always been like that. try to tell all pro they didnt ever here of a problem like this before.  i told them well you have now but of course they didnt do anything about it.  the military wrap on mine is all the way to one side to. bent, and twisted funny.

Send All-Pro the picture and tell them you want a new set of springs.  that is not right.  It could be some sort of death trap or something if they break.

Oh well, the All Pro Extreme Kit is what I got and I'm gonna run what I got until it breaks.  It will be nice if that is later than sooner.  It would have been nice if Marlin had had a comparable option at the time equivlanet to the 5" Extreme Lift Kit that All Pro offers.  Maybe I'm just a retard, but I couldn't find it as a package deal here.  :dunno:
