    It depends. It gets kinda tight in between the shackle mounts due to the crossmember for the hitch. We may be able to work them in there though, I'll have to go back and measure the next bumper I do to see.

    R&D takes time. You do want Quality right?

    I realize everyone wants these things out... and so do I. I've got the basic setup done but haven't finished testing them on different setups yet and I am not willing to put something out on the market that's not proven yet. R&D does take alot of time, especially when you consider what it is we're trying to develop here. There's a reason no one else has started making these, they are a pain in the butt to get right with so many variables.

    Again sorry it's taking so long just know we're working on it as fast as we can and when it's ready to go TW will be the first to know.

    x3. I wouldn't want ANY part rushed.

    I've been very fucking picky about what I've done with this truck, what products I've used, and who I've let work on it. There's no sense in being that particular and focused on getting things "right" and then half-assing something else. Do it all well, or don't bother.

    The pickiness I'm seeing with this shackle flip design makes me happy. That's the kind of person I WANT building high-end products that I plan to work hard for a long long time.

    Take all the time you need Kevin. We'll wait.
