anyone have pics of their truck with deavers?

i was looking to get a set of the long travel ones. I was wondering if i had to buy the new shackles or could i run my stock ones for a bit till i get the money for the nice camburg ones. And how about how much lift do they springs end up giving you once you flip your shackles?

With a LT pack you HAVE to run longer shackles. The springs are physicly longer.

They lift 2.5", but if you have blocks in the back you'll take them out so it will be the same hight after.

A signature would really help us help you.. we would know what you are driving...

I have LT deavers, but I bought the truck with them already installed. I'm pretty sure my shackles are just flipped. Heres a pic... it doesn't show them specifically, but you can seem them protruding from the bed:

Those are aftermarket shackles.. stock ones can flip and not hit the bed, but arnt long enough for the LT pack, just the PreRunner pack.
