EDIT: I actually need to replace my 4" shackle flip brackets with 2.5" brackets. So I'm also selling the ORD 4" shackle flip as well. -My truck has a "rake" to it now, with a 4" shackle flip and 6" long shackles instead of the standard 4" ones. If you aren't running high-arched lift springs like I am, this combo will work just fine for you. I needed to run the 6" shackles. ORD told me from the beginning and I didn't listen.... 

With my 6" lift 56s, the standard 4" shackle wasn't long enough to accommodate the compressed length of my main leaf. -I was getting shackle inversion. So I've since then gone to a 6" shackle. More specs on the shackles here:

Super rugged compared to stock. Here's the "shackle inversion" or "spring lock-out" that I was getting with 4" shackles.
