I thought they were exactly as stock, save for the 1.75" offset.

For some reason I dont think it is the same as a reg. shackle??
Other cars I have seen with these-something just looks different?
I dont know if its the shackles or a lowered (dearched) spring?
Thats why I would like to know:help:

Any lowering is done with springs or lowering blocks. The offset shacles don't lower the car.

Should be in the suspension forum.
