Drop Shackles for Rear of Rear Spring 57-60

Hey all,

I've searched and read many threads and haven't seen this come up. Looking to lower the rear end of my newly acquired 1960 F100. Nothing radical, but level out the rear. I had a 1963 F100 previously and put in extended rear shackles to raise the back of the rear spring. My question is this - there seem to be plenty of products for the 61-64 and even the 65+ model years, but nothing offered for our 57-60 trucks. The suspension looks almost identical both front and rear. Any one know if any of the other years rear suspension parts are interchangeable with the 1957-1960 frame?

Thank you!

Rear springs, shackles interchange 1957/66 F100.

Hi NumberDummy,

Thank you! So any shackles that are listed for the rear suspension for the 61-66 trucks should be fine with my 1960? Great!

Thanks!
