WTF i know it's cheap to lift the back this way but thats the problem it's cheap in every sense.If you think you have to have your truck jacked up high at least pu stock shackles back on and do a spring over as the long shackles can bend the springs and i have seen them fold over to the side.Sorry about the rant but there is a correct way and a cheap way.

I just asked if it was stock, because it didn't look stock to me. besides, I didn't put them on, I want it safe, and have about a 3in lift in front and back, so i can start to fix this truck.

They are not stock. You can get a good set of shackles from most 4X4 shops, the one's that are thick and have a support welded in between the links.
