Hammer Hangers® by Archive Garage 2005-2023 Tacoma Shackle Hangers

When you welded the lower shock tab on to the axle, did you just angle it down more to fit the 14" shock? I'm assuming you have the archive shock relocation or is it custom or from another company?

 

Yes, 3.6 is the right option, like Supra4x4 said

 

@ARCHIVE hey brother I sent you a pm with some questions on what I need to order from ya not sure if you saw it or not

 

Thanks for including the pics. Everything looking good, however you can see the Dakar main leaf is separated from the pack. This gives max droop for sure with long shackle option (Dakar or Archive U571 Dual Sport springs only), but that is why I still recommend the shorter shackles with Dakars, because the pack with that separation isn't very functional on the trail with forces the axle is exerting on leaf packs, as main leaf can wrap.

The only SOA spring that is designed for the longer shackle option is the Archive U571 Dual Sport springs https://archivegarage.com/products/archive-tacoma-spring

 

Yeah I can see it now when I look at the picture. Eventually I'll be switching out the dakars for those Deavers, but that's a ways off. Didn't think I'd be putting bypasses back there when I started tearing apart the back and just needed leafs for the lift. But it was a snowball effect and damn, it's nice being able to play with the tube settings. I'm very happy with how the hangers-shackles and relocation perform together. Once I add that spring, whole rear end will be Archive.

 

The winner of the last batch is Cameron Rowell from post #810 here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...a-archive-garage.519625/page-41#post-19698975

Oooooo tough luck @Comatose

 

Yea, I saw earlier and cried a little before work.

 

You're all winners in my book, since y'all have hammer hangers now.

 

I was just thinking about this yesterday. Woke up this morning to an email! Pretty sweet little thing you do. Maybe I can use this refund to get the rear shock relocation.

 

I think that's an excellent idea

 

They sure can take it. I smacked the hell out of mine last trip out.

 

Anyone have tips on removing the stock bushings?

 

Fire, hate and a dremel

 

Or with 10 year old shackles just buying a new set might be worth it

 

I have #2 and #3. I don't have a good source for #1 lol

 

Someone else recommend the same. I just figured to go for the added benefit of urethane.

 

New ones come without the bushing installed, just press in the new poly bushings and go

 

get the ureathane and butter em up real good with grease. super easy to service in the future.
