Yeah you usually have to cut/grind the shackles a bit to get it in the 1" drop hole.

And I've got a set of stock shackles that have maybe 20k miles on them if you want them, shoot me an offer.

I see about the grinding.

We'll, I'll try it out with the 8" drop and see how it goes. i dont know if the belltech notch will provide enough clearance, Ive read the DJM and MCG notches are deeper. I'll probably need to notch the bed as well.
