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

hammer the bolt out right into my composite bed's rib. hmmm...

 

Amazon one-day one. Found one for $14 dollarydos. Another possibility is to thread the bolts back in cut the access then thread them back out.

 

LOL I’ve been there before. I don’t recall how I solved it.

 

I've already zip tied it in place so it doesn't rattle. I'll have it handled at Tandem soon, they are gonna rebuild my cv's in about a week. fun day learning about a new tool. . thanks for the help again.

 

I'll try it tomorrow. iirc the 2nd or 3rd hardware store today had a reversible 13mm flex head, either way at least i won't be making this mistake again.

 

also Tim from DMZ I think stocks +6’s that’s what I got for my sua.

 

If you are in North Texas, try asking in the DFW thread, someone there will let you borrow their set and finish in their driveway

 

1+ for Tim at DMZ. Easy to work with, called him up one day and swung by his shop the day after to pick them up.

 

1 WEEK LEFT of November sale

Use code november10 at checkout. Thank you everyone for your support

A note on lead time for those who are still waiting on their Hh + 3.6 shackles. In the past 6 months, our orders have continually increased, and on top of that, the percentage of people ordering shackles with Hh is up, so sort of a double increase. We are increasing production for the growing demand.

 

Hi @ARCHIVE,

Question kind of off topic but a little related. On the your Spring Under Axle Kit you have. I think the answer is the stock springs will not work/reach. Can you let me know if the kit will work with stock springs on a 3rd gen tacoma? I am guessing the deaver LT or HD springs are recommended.

Thanks

 

I responded to your email

 

Did stuff today

 

Cleaned that then painted

 

How long did it take you? Any tips you can give me? I’m installing mine next weekend and I want to be prepared

 

You can see the tools I used. One thing that helped (not pictured) was a longer metal Sawzall blade- the blade you see was my back up. . Using fresh drill bits goes a long way and keep them lubricated while drilling. Make use of that center punch and be patient. Hope this helps.
Oh yeah used a grinder here and there

Thanks for the replies, I was going to take it to a shop for the install but decided to do it myself.
Today I went and buy the supplies I needed to remove the hangers but I forgot to buy the paint.
Is there any recommendations on the paint I should use?
Also, the instructions did not specify in which position I have to install the hangers when using Icon rxt leaf but I’m guessing they go in the rearmost position(I don’t have to drill a new hole). Can someone confirm this?

 

Rearmost position, and satin black engine paint or vht suspension paint

 

Last day of sale pricing, if you want them, get them now, because price jumps up tomorrow

 

I just ordered a set!

Now for the wait.................
