Hi guys i put a 2in efs spring lift in and my stock shackles were at 90 degress i mucked around and made a set of 2in extended shakles and they are still at 90 degrees. If i get them to 45 i should have a nicer ride and more movement??
Someone told me there was some sort of shackle mount extender or something to achieve this...?

Thanks

Front and rear are both like that?

Maybe not exactly 90 but pretty well.

Your springs have too much arch and/or are too short. Only feasible fix is to remove leaves to reduce lift. Longer shackles will not fix the problem.

Moving the shackle hanger would fix the problem, but that's a cut and weld job and pointless when the problem is excessive spring camber.

Efs take a few months of use to soften and flatten out

Yeah, go and flog the thing over some corrugations and get your flex on as often as possible to mash the springs and flatten them out.

If it's riding harsh (which it probably is) then drop the load leaf and get a softer ride (and less lift).
