Snapper692 08-12-2009, 06:06 PM What's the best route for lowering the rear end 2" - 3"? Are there lowering shackles available for the dually? I know there's a 2" lowering option with the sulastic shackles, but those are currently a little out of the price range! :rolleyes: WHTDMAX06 08-12-2009, 06:38 PM Just get lowering shackles usually they have 3 holes 1" 2" 3" that way you can make sure you get the right amount. yo-yo 08-14-2009, 01:32 AM Bell Tech 6403 will get you about 2 1/2 to 3.00 inches of drop. avenger 08-14-2009, 02:44 AM With these drop shackles do you still have the same load carrying capability? pa32rt 08-14-2009, 04:18 PM With these drop shackles do you still have the same load carrying capability? Yes and no. The lowering does not reduce the load cap. But, lowering will remove the overload leaves. Typically, 95+% of the time, air bags are put in their place. I personally would put bags on even a STOCK dually, as they are much softer than the overloads, level the truck, AND retain the same load capacity. Even dropped 9" in the rear, I can still haul just as much as stock.

Love them, levels it out nicely, not too little, not too much! doughogue 08-16-2009, 10:01 PM How hard is it to install these drop shackles on a dually? I have a 2009 GMC. Sorry, not trying to hijack your tread. pa32rt 08-17-2009, 12:53 AM Some jack-stands, a floor jack and some wrenches. Probably the hardest part is unbolting the hitch assembly to allow the bolts to come out! christopherglenn 08-17-2009, 02:57 AM PA32RT, what did you do up front? pa32rt 08-17-2009, 08:57 AM PA32RT, what did you do up front? DJM lower control arms (6") and 2" keys at about 1.5". | ||
