Help with shackles

[Kahuna]

Don't forget grease. Get a specific bushing grease like Energy is my view. Squeaks suck.

Are you running Icon or Deaver leafs? The cross member looks too close to the holes to fit Icons but tough to say from a pic. Call Jeff and ask him.

I currently have Deavers that purchased from SVC so suppose they could be Deaver specific- Idk.

What torque is needed?

From memory 89lbs on both the eye to shackle and frame to shackle but I would ask SVC if I were you. I have seen other numbers floating around.

Always pre-heat the oven before you stick in the turkey.

After some initial confusion about the SDHQ drop shackles it appears the SDHQ shackles made after Feb 2019 will work with Icon leafs!

Thanks Nick at Apollo Optics for all your help on this! Getting them installed soon [emoji3]

Glad we could help, Matt! Go get those bad boys installed now! And the rest of the parts that have been sitting there for the majority of the year!

The Ford torque spec sheet shows 136 lbs.

Icon spring installation instructions say 89.
