I would op for the djm or beltech shackles since they are better quality but these are the ones I had laying around.
Drop shackles - 2" Rear Drop Lowering Shackle - 2 Inch Drop Shackles for Silverado 1500 Sierra 1500 1988-2019, Chevy and GMC C1500 C2500 1988-1998 Replaces # 410520 a.co/d/iUIGPlD
Very good video! Thanks man. 👍 I plan on installing these myself on my 89 C1500. I put 295 50r 15s on the back thinking it would look cool because theyre so wide. But that rake in the rear just makes them look dumb. They look too short. Hopefully, dropping it a couple inches will fix that.
great content i love the video, i can’t wait to see what you did to the 88 truck
Your truck your choice, looks great
Thanks man
Did you have to shim the rear axle to correct the pinion angle? I’m doing same thing on a 1997 Silverado 1500 2wd regular cab short bed.
@@billyhorton2966 not for a 2” drop if you where doing a 6” you would for sure probably even a 4” but not a 2”
@@claytonhatle.1988 thanks for the info!!
I've had some drop shackles installed on my 98 c2500 for about a year now. Found a 4-5/6 drop kit for it, but idk how much, if any, different the suspension is to a c1500.
Plan on doing the same thing. Thanks do you need upgraded shoks or will the magnums do?
They should be fine
Do you have to remove the shocks before installing the shackles
@@shannoncofer8798 no
You forgot about the 99 Surburban.
Did u have any issues spring hitting bed rail
No issues there I had it on my short box it was because my leaf springs were wore out
What size socket for the shackles?
Link the shackles
Just put the link in the description for you👍
