Message: [QUOTE="08twinturbo, post: 932530, member: 4318"] Well. I figured I would end all of my wondering about lowering shackles on a 2008 f250-350. I ordered the two only sets made that claim to fit a 99-2007 f250-350 truck. Here is what I found. Djm shackles are far superior with bushings and thickness of shackle. As thick or thicker than stock. Now the western chassis are thinner than stock. Had rubber bushings that had fallen out in the box. Very economically made if you get my drift. So I installed the djms and the fit was perfect. Had a 1/16" of clearance from new shackle to bed. They lowered truck a true 1.5" and it rides so much better. Also wanted to add that i checked my pinion angle before and after and it was 2.5° before and 3° after so it really didnt change that enough to worry about. No vibrations and much smoother ride. So for all that were wondering. Djm do fit an 08 up with no isuues. Here is the part # listed below. [ATTACH=full]130266[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
