I did chevy 63" with a double shackle, so the only fab necessary was welding in the front spring hangers, I used the stock rear shackle hangers as the mounting point for my 1st shackle (which rests against the frame) and then the second shackle mounts to the other end of that. I know this is considered a somewhat ghetto approach, but I never had any trouble with the springs "unloading" off road and the extra droop made for some epic poser shots:hill: The ride was super nice with bilstein 5100's.

:edit: actually thinking back, I think I welded on lower shock tabs too, but only because I did a u-bolt flip. But either way, only a few minutes of welding time required.
