Guys I need a little help. My dad has a '89 swb. The rear has some sort of drop shackles on it, no drop hangers or flip kit....the problem is that its stiff. I can stand in the bed jump up and down it doesn't move. So we changed the shocks still doesn't move.
What do I do with it?
Another question is what's the best shocks for these trucks lowered and shocks for a '85c10 with drop shackles,hangers, and flip kit? I got the nitro drop shocks are these anygood?

The shackles might be too tight. Enough to where it wont let the springs move.
Axekick tuned, Pacesetters, Servo.
How tight should they be? I guess I could back em off and see what happens...

you need to remove 1 or 2 leaf springs and soften it up a bit.
Those are the same springs made for a long wheelbase extened cab, your dads truck is probally half the weight.

ttt plan on changing leaf springs on the '85 and taken some out on the '89 but how tight should the shackles be?
