    This is saddening. What's the list of compatible leaf spring combos with your shackles?

    We don't have a list of compatible springs. We know standard style eye springs do not work with the shackle without modification.

    The spring on top is the type you want to insure clearance.

    The Standard eye leaf springs dont fit well into the shackle.

    sounds like the spring manufacturers need to change their design to work with your shackles :)

    Haven’t picked through this whole thread yet, BUT:
    Will the hangers and shackles from you guys work with Dakar leaf pack with a total chaos rear shock relocation hoop kit (planning on running king 2.5x10”)
    I know the answer is probably yes but wasn’t sure if anyone had any issues running these with this specific relocation kit

    So the answer is no? I’m pretty sure my dakars don’t have that curve?

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.

    I have only had two people contact me that have issues with the spring contacting the shackles both have custom leaf packs. Some will be just the second leaf and some might not work at all with the standard eye on the custom heavy load packs.

    So the mod to make the dakars fit should be as easy as cutting the end of the second spring? I’ll probably end up going with it anyway, figure I could easily sell them if they don’t work

    Why you post link of Dakars? Plus that's the wrong end. Military wrap goes up front.

    Not to boast another companies products on your page but would the 4xinnovations shackle work with your hanger and I'm assuming those hangers dont have any fitment issue?
