1-2in Rear Lowering Shackles for 04-13 Ford F-150 Pickup [RC0502] | Rough Country Suspension Systems

Rough Country makes the 1-2" option drop shackles.

I know synergy makes drop shackles too but they are 1" only, non adjustable.

POLY PERFORMANCE OFF-ROAD PARTS*::*Suspension*::*Suspension & Lift Kits*::*Ford Suspension Systems*::*10+ Raptor*::*Synergy 09-12 Ford F150 / Raptor Leveling Shackle

These ones look beefier and are probably better for offroad.

I got the second set you posted...they should be in in a few weeks, just have to find the time.

i know about the rough country ones but never seen them in person. anyone know if they are beefy enough to handle the abuse we out the raptor thru offroad? they are exactly what i want and that price is hard to beat but i wonder if they are cheap and cheaply made...u get what u pay for usually

I'd call SDHQ. However you did say you'd mostly be running trails and small jumps. The rough chubby probably closely resembles the stock one in strength.

I'm dealing with KHC at the moment with finding one but I think I will resuggest the rough chubby

I am thinking about doing this to my truck. Does anyone have any updates or further opinions on benefits/drawbacks?
