About this Manufacturer:
Ground Force has been in the suspension lowering game for a long time, and we have been using Ground Force components on some of our personal rides since at least 1994. We've always trusted the company to build quality parts that will handle just as well as they make a vehicle look, and we've never been disappointed. Not a company to rest on its laurels, Ground Force is always innovating new products to get recently released vehicles closer to Mother Earth, and works closely with automobile manufacturers to engineer lowering parts and kits that perform as well as the OEM parts they replace.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are hangers and shackles? Why buy hangers and shackles?
Hangers are the bracket that the front of the leaf spring is bolted to (leaf springs are a main suspension component for the rear end of most trucks). When you buy a new hanger to lower your truck, you are buying a hanger that locates the front half of the leaf spring higher on the frame and therefore lowers your truck. For the geometry of your truck suspension to remain optimal, it is also necessary to change out the shackles to replace your factory ones, which is why hangers and shackles are almost always sold together. Buying hangers and shackles is one of multiple ways to lower the rear of a truck that utilizes a leaf spring suspension setup.
Do hangers and shackles automatically go together, or would you ever use them separately?
If you use one without the other, the geometry of your truck's suspension will be skewed, which will result in worsened ride quality and unnecessary wear and tear on your truck's tires and suspension. In most cases, it is best to buy a complete hanger and shackle kit as opposed to just buying one hangers or shackles by themselves.
