I have an 83 250. I was wondering if anyone knew of a company that sold front lift shackles for those years? or if im goin to have to make my own does anyone have any good advise? thanks

F250 have the shackles in the front and it's bad design to begin with.

I would not recommend putting longer shackles on, you'll only make matters worse.

Take some time and read some posts before you post questions like this. You're going to get flamed to hell for asking shit like this.

You'll find plenty of good info here on what is fawked up about the TTB...............

The shackles suck, do a shackle reversal, that will gain you in the 3-4" range, and rid you of the crappy stock shackle design, you'll still need drop brackets to suit the lift though. Mind you, going to normal shackles may actually cause bind due to the way TTB flexes the sprins, so, a shackle reversal and a SAS would be the proper way to go.

hey thanks for the info.. i forgot to mention i did a 60 front swap already. so that will be perfect.

You still haven't said whether or not the shackles are in the stock (front) location?

If they are, do a shackle reversal.

Regardless, there are plenty of places that sell 3" wide shackles in various lengths.

I have a brand new 5" reverse shackle kit for front and rear $500 ..

their in stock location

Like I said before: It's a stupid idea.

The shackles in the front SUCK and you'll only make it WORSE by extending the length of them.

Not to mention totally fawking up your caster angle.

Shackle reversal is the ONLY way to go.........
