Does anyone know the measurements for the M.O.R.E. boomerang shackles or ones similar. and the degree of angle on them. I am going to go over to Toleson steel and have some made. it's got to be cheaper than paying 85.00 a pair. I need to see if this fixes my problem with my leaf hitting the frame in the rear. pictures attached in thread.

Thanks
Dean

cutting out the parts,1/2 hr drilling holes, 1/2 hr welding 1/2 hr and you think its gonna be cheaper to have a shop make em? not even close. Im betting their quote will be more like 150.00 for the set.

shop rate of 65 hour x 1.5 hours plus materials........... well over 85.00

I'd look at it from the 'hassle' point of view.

$85 and you get exactly the product you need without having to go through a lot of fab work and driving around. Unless they are making these for you for free it just doesn't seem worth it.
