is this on the 06? I don't remember ever seeing a hanger on the shackle side...I'm used to seeing hangers on the cab side lifting the front side of the spring perch closer to the bed. what kit is this? it looks right to me though. if you flip it over the shackle will jack the *** of your truck up around 10"

Yes they are upside down. Those are lift hangers.

I'm with TX.
My flip kit also had lift hangers but they went on the front mounts of the leaf not rear/shackle side.
Though mine was for a 2wd 2dr Tahoe, probably completely different hahaha.
Still, never seen hangers for the rear.

Hell my flip kit used the stock hangers and flipped the axle on top of the leafs.
