Hey all, haven't had a chance to get on lately with school and work, but gota little free time and so i figured i'd ask ya'll a question that's been botherin me for a while.
I've been lookin to lift my truck, but i'm havin problems findin parts. I've been looking for shackle's for the rear suspension. All i've been able to find are shackle's for Pickups, Tacoma's and Tundra's. Will any of these fit my T-100? If not, does anyone know of any lift shackles i can use?

What kind of tools do you have access to? You can make your own shackles easily and they are a good first project I'd say.
I guess the big problem is the "step" on the stock shackles, right? I bet you could make a step in a set that you made by welding in a small bit of tubing or something similar.
I see you are in Lafayette, CO/Farmington NM. I'm in Lafayette too, so I could help you some weekend. I have a welder, drill press, and angle grinder.

When lifting my truck I contacted Roger Brown, took the measurements according to his diagram, and he made me exactly what I needed for shackles with the step in them and all the greasable hardware to go with it. Good product, and a very helpful and knowledgeable guy. http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/Shackles.shtml
