Re: Shackle lift and quick disconnects
Very nice Sewie. Thanks for sharing 
Hey who said we could'nt find parts for the H3?
Is the 11 degree swivle of the connectors enough? I remember IPE needed washers because his connectors didn't have ball joints and because of this couldn't handle the angle without washers. Yours has some type of ball joint right?

Re: Shackle lift and quick disconnects
Sure looks sturdy. Let us know how it feels after driving it for a couple days.

I think they'll be fine. They have spherical bushings and have a collar at one end for the offset. They bottom flares out maybe a couple degrees. If becomes a problem I can always grind down the collar to get the endlinks more vertical. They are also greasable, so that will help with wear.
BTW, the stock ones weren't vertical either. They flared in at the bottom a couple degrees.

Re: Shackle lift and quick disconnects
Sewie, Any updates on your improved flex??? Did you have any problem with brakelines or ABS not being long enough for increased droop???
