    To be honest the quality of them is what brought me in lol. Ok so I have a stock 3rd gen, But I’ll eventually swap out the suspension.. would I be able to reuse them?

    when I went on your website all the option lost me. I’ll have to go through this entire thread because I have no clue about anything other than I love the quality lol

    These work from otherwise stock up to about 14" travel using springs that fit in stock location.

    Installing HH and reusing stock shackles is a great combo, so you don't need any options, maybe drill bits for installing. You must drill out stock rivets and remove stock shackle hangers. Hold these in your hands, you'll see the quality and feel the ride quality.

    Hammer hangers are now revised to their best ever rolling towards the 1 year mark. I sat at the computer for a few days in August and figured out how to eliminate the shackle from rotating too far, while achieving the fully ramped bottom I wanted so badly, which also brings more strength, so I didn't need the 5/16 bottom plate! This ramp is pulled back towards the shackle so spring leaves don't catch on the ramp. Add to that there is less lift which SOA guys will like, but can still fit a shackle 1.1" longer than stock. Plus they are now a bit lighter. Got all that? I'm very satisfied will the results and happy to get to this point in time for November. Never stop improving!

    Version 2 (This revision is what's shipping now for this batch)

    Yes, barely 3/8" max with the short Dakar HDs. Longer springs probably no lift or 1/4"

    I got my hangers today. I can't say enough good things about them. Quality and workmanship are A-1. Packing was even over the top. Unfortunately I won't be able to install for a couple of weeks. Thanks Eric for everything!!
