    The BAMF HD shackles are a like the stock shackles hangars, but on steroids. Right now Jerry is having issues with the shackle design contacting the hangar. The ATO shackle flip gives you an extra 1" lift and are just as beefy as the BAMF HD shackles, but the design of them lowers your load carrying capability. I planned on putting more weight in the rear, so I needed to change things up.

    Hey Mark :hungry: I just made chili tacos. It's about as messy as it sounds. It's also as delicious as it sounds as well.

    Nice! You got my gears turning about boxing the frame when you showed me those plates and they never really quit turning... I think that's something I'll eventually do as well.

    Lemme know when you're going to tackle the shock relocation, I'll bet we can cut the time in half!
