    I had AAL/stock shackle then recently changed to no AAL/XJ shackle to gain more droop.

    My best friend built a 05 prerunner out of his garage. With his setup before he went SUA he was seeing 14" out if a 12" shock by changing the angle of the shock. This is the direction I am going.

    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    Dis bitch needs longer shackles!!! And SUA is not only a waste of money but reduces ground clearance...save your money and do a decent shock relocation!

    I'm with this guy! Love my travel now that I have the relocation done. The XJ shackles are a nice addition as well.

    Damn man. ECGS said this happens all the time, luckily for us they had some laying around because they we're only in stock on the west coast. Show stopper for sure.

    Ahh ok!

    :eek: Guess the self filling diff trick didn't work out??
