Sky's is producing a 92-97 F-250/F-350 front shackle reversal. The kit will give 3 inch's of lift. Its here at last.

Sky Manufacturing second generation front Ford F-350 shackle reversal. This kit provides much better ride than stock by eliminating the weak front shackle bushing, and by moving the shackle to the rear of the leaf spring like it should be as to deflect impacts of harsh road driving. Kit provides a 3 inch lift. We recommend new longer/better shocks to compliment this lift. If you would like to get carried away, we also can provide a drop pitman arm and new braided brake lines, though not needed. The new generation front hanger kit also allows the fitment of an intercooler in the front cavity of the truck, as the ears of the hanger that sit on the inside of the frame are now formed to eliminate spacers previously used. All parts are laser cut, cnc formed, tig welded. Primary hanger is .250 steel, shackles and pan hard drop are 3/8ths steel. Kit includes all needed hardware, bushings, and instructions. F-250 will require minor front frame horn modification to fit on some vehicles. If you are using a TTB front axle you will need to fab or buy drop brackets.

The kit includes the front hanger, the rear shackles, pan hard drop bracket, all bolts, bushings, and other needed hardware.

78-97 Ford Shackle Flip Kit.

Sky's Off-Road is the only company producing a rear shackle flip kit for the Ford vehicles so far. This adds 4.5 inch's of lift. On Bronco based vehicles, no modifications are needed to correct pinion angle if only the flip kit is used. On long wheel base vehicles, using factory blocks, we recommend a 4 inch lift block with a 4 degree taper replace the factory blocks, in reverse of stock. This will correct pinion angle and move the axle slightly rearward.

    Tired of the weak torch and turn shackle flip kits. Want something strong and attractive looking? Need it to bolt on? We've covered it all with our bolt on shackle flip kit for the rear shackle on almost any Ford pickup or Bronco with 3" wide rear springs. Moves the shackle forward 1 inch for better ride and angle, bolts to stock location of factory upwards shackle hanger, constructed of 1/4 and 3/8ths steel plate, laser cut and CNC formed.

        The Ford shackle reversal bolted in the stock location adds Aprx. 4.5 inch's of lift. Some may prefer to weld on the bracket, depending on location this will add or subtract lift on the principal of an one inch shackle movement adds or subtracts 1/2 inch of lift.

Available only in raw steel! Below is what our customers have to say!

I am writing you today about my complete satisfaction with your Ford Shackle
flip brackets. I have had these on for almost 3 years and 32K miles. They
have been through the worst I could put them through, and just keep on
asking for more. Since installation on my truck I have jumped my truck about
4 times trice at Glamis Sand dunes and once at El Mirage dry lake going
about 75 or so MPH. Not to mention the many miles of towing and "jackrabbit"
starts these have endured. Even the wear I got on my leaf anti-squeak
bushings has seemed to stop. In contrast to the lift blocks I had on there
previously these shackles were a godsend. These units have held up with out
any flexing, cracking or bending that I can see. Your superb engineering is
also apparent in the fact no harm has come to the factory shackle given the
abuse I have given my suspension. They have miraculously not bent twisted or
cracked proving your design is by all meaning of the word, foolproof.

Again installation instructions have been posted to my site, as per our
original deal you have full rights to reprint the instructions. I was
originally sold the brackets at cost on the condition that I created a
install article for you guys.

Anyways, I hope this testimony will further spark sales of excellent shackle
flip brackets.

Sincerely,

Ford Chevy Jeep Dana 44 High Steer Arms.
We do not Powder Coat Steering arms! Powder Coating steering arms is very Dangerous. Why, #1 because metal to metal contact area's should not have a weaker cushion between them to wear out, causing arms to become loose, and deadly. #2, Conical washers will not seat correctly, neither will your tie rods ends.

It has been designed to fit leaf sprung vehicles, without the use of spacers. It retains a short stud as well, making the install stronger than long stud kits. The arms are available in a long passenger side 2 hole, and a short single hole driver side.     Dana 44 Machine/Drill/Tap labor-$45. 2-5 day turnaround. Knuckle must be bare just like picture shows.
