anyone used the DJM lowering shackels one a 87-91? 92-96's are also welcome.
i just ordered my set and they should be here saturday or monday (i only live 31/2 hours from summit)
I'd like to see some to see what to expect..

 

I had some that I was going to use, but never did, since I haul stuff with mine. My friend has them and they work fine.

 

Yes. There are quite a few threads on this.

80-96 is all the same.


What to expect is about 1.5" drop in the rear.. Come on now.

 

i meant visualy i wanted to see some pictures of trucks (specificly 87-91) with them, i looked for some but didnt turn anything up, all i found were trucks that had used the dream beams

 

I used the 2in drop coils in the front & the 4in drop hangers & shackles in the rear , nice kit , worked well.....Lew

 

Visually all thats different is a powder coated shackle

Here is a quick picture I found of mine.

 

If your looking for pix of how a truck looks overall, then my truck may be what you are looking for. It only has the drop shackles but from Belltech instead of DJM. Sorry for the grainy pix; they were scanned back when we were all using older technology. It's a very subtle drop. I don't have a side view of the truck, which would probably be a better view to see the altitude change.

 

yea ed thats what im lookin for is like a side view of one thats got the shackels
update: dude ed nice! i just smoked my tails and i hate bed caps but your truck looks pretty damn good!

 

Thanks for the compliments, but unfortunately she doesn't look that nice right now. The cap was replaced with a Snug Top lid, the hood is currently off and waiting for corrosion control. The roll pan needs repair and paint and the front bumper will be replaced with a Belltech bumper cover. Got tired of worrying about Cops pulling me over for the lights, so those were removed. I'm hoping to make a carbon fiber copy of the hood (painted of course); dang thing is heavy in all-metal form.

I'll try to get a side view for you and post it up.

 

got'em here took about 1-3 hours to install and heres the pics after the test ride

 

Looks good. You happy with them?

Where do you live? Looks like north FL or GA to me.

 

Thats lowered? Looks like a stock 4wd

 

I think you should have put the money towards a savings for a paint job.

 

looks good. i liek your tail lights. just curious though, whyd you lower a 4x4?

 

Well Im pretty sure its not 4x4 and its a 2" rear drop to level it.
