Default lets talk 3" shackles

Ok, I know for a fact they make 3" shackles for chevrolet trucks, they list them for 2500's, i think they are a little to long for 1500's and will hot the bottom of the bed. Has anyone here used them, I need one more inch in the rear and would love to try these. I have no problem cutting a little material to make em work.

Pics if you got em
