auto zone shackles- worth it? Safe?

[escobar]

Hey guys. They have a universal shackle kit at Auto Zone for $14.95 per set. Multiple spacing from around 4" to about 7".

I'm needing about another inch on top of my 2.5 lift. Just trying to get a little more clearance for the 32's I'm riding on.

Is this a good idea?

If doing lift shackels check these out first.
Shackle Lift Kits : Wisner Machine Works

I replaced my universal set with these and it made a huge improvement.

Ok guys thank you.

These at a.z. are very plain and "generic". I know I can't go too crazy doing a lift with these, but its going to be a daily driver and get muddy every now and then. What's been bugging me us that I don't like body lifts at all but I've been needing an additional 1" to sit over my 32's better- and not spend a fortune doing it.

The Wisner shackles are very heavy duty and very reasonable.If the AZ sets are not reenforced in between I would stay away from them.You need all the support from flex and twisting that you can get to preserve the handling.
I went with the 1in lift and greasable bolts and it was all less than $120 for front and rear.Bolts were more than the shackels
