I have a pair of brand new Velvet Ride Shackles for sale - I purchased them for my 2002 Regular cab Z-71....And I have never gotten around to installing them...

 

I am asking $125+shipping...regular price is $159...

 

thanks, and email me at [email protected] if interested...

they replace your rear OE leaf spring shackles - the velvet ride shackles have a rubber torsion spring built into them which helps take the edge of sharp bumps...

I'd be interested in seeing the pics if you have any.

lrymal has a set on his rig, and might be persuaded to snap a few. I know he likes them.

 

Lordcorp is who manufactures them. They say that they will lower the rear a little after installed...That site is probably a good place for pics as well.

 

Only reason I don't have them, is because they will lower the rear a little, and I like how my truck sits now.

 

:cheers:

Below are some pictures I took of mine for somebody here who wanted to know how they looked against regular shackles. Seems there is an issue of '03 and upwards trucks that affect the installation of Velvet Ride shackles. My Velvet Ride shackles fit perfectly on my '03. Seems not all shackle mounts are designed the same, thus making it difficult for shackle modification kits. I dunno....

 

I have wheel well liners which prevent an easy way of getting the camera in there.

 

Also, note that these aren't going to look purty or anything. Being real SHACKLES, they are exposed to road junk.
