Removal
• When removing OEM/Previous Shackle, the hardware is under stress and will be difficult to remove.
• Jacking up your truck at the frame can help relieve this pressure.
• Once you find the sweet spot and the hardware turns easily, remove both shackles. -
Installation
• Thuren shackles provide 2 height adjustments: Stock, 1/2” lowering, depending on the bolt holes used, the closest one to the frame mount is 1/2” Lowering.
• Install all hardware in desired position for both Shackles.
• Torque both Leaf spring and Shackle hardware to 140 Ft/Lbs at ride height. -
Lubrication
• It is mandatory to grease your Shackle Assembly after install.
• The Shackle Assembly will hold quite a bit of grease and you should pump high performance grease into the assembly until you feel solid pressure. *This could be as many as 30 pumps depending on your grease gun.
