Heya
Have a 93 wt zook
On the rear spring mounts there are some limiters that stop the shackles from dropping too far but is giving next to nothing flex with 2" suspension lift
Do most people cut them off or modify them or get drop shackles to get extra drop/flex in the rear
Will be puttin slightly longer shocks in so they will become the limiter then to prevent inverted shackles/damage

I doubt you'll gain and extra useful travel by cutting them off.

So no point in worryin about it for the extra bit
The rear is the main area that is stopping the flex

How much are you after?

Longer springs and shackles will help a lot.

I chopped them off and found that it made no noticeable difference

Just a bit more than the limiters but if they are cut off and theres no differene then my best option will be to get some drop shackles
