Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

tbh the greaseable shackle is probably a worthwhile idea.

If it's not too late I have a stock set of shackles with less then 1400 miles on them you can have and save you a few $.

 

Are you running these?

 

Yep, with the bamf hangers

 

I don't need hangers to run the shak

les?

 

that is correct.

"100% .250" construction factory replacement that fits your factory hanger or our HD hanger kit."

 

No

Yes

2019 called, they want their reposted thread back. Also it's been well over a year since OME and Dobson's started tapering their second spring so avoid this issue or at least somewhat mitigate it.

That being said, visual inspections of your vehicles are always a good idea especially after a hard outing.

 

Alright, I do need that fancy shit

 

Also, Frontiers have open style shackles so... Where you at Toyota?

 

Does it feel good to be in the know?

 

Anyone want to buy a set of Archive Hammer Hangers and 3.6 shackles? I have no time to install them this year, could use funds for other tomfoolery.

 

No time? Only takes a few hours, and worth it.

Need to poke @pearing he mentioned wanting a set

 

Yeah, but standard eye leaf springs are just not designed to work with a tacoma shackle. Yeah, you can make it "work", but even tapering the second leaf STILL means that the second leaf is entering the hanger which is not good.

Run a leaf system with a berlin eye if you're going to use hangers and shackles.

 

Yup. Like I said visual inspections are still good.

 

I am disappoint.

 

It does. Sorry didn't mean to come across as combative.

It is the internet, after all

 

So what your saying is 4 link and coils? Pretty sure we just talked about that like 2 pages ago lol

 

I don't need that fancy shit
