[QUOTE="David Shindle, post: 540126, member: 60227"] I recently upgraded my ST from the stock 235 Michelins to some nice BFG's, 265/75/16. I had a TT done on the front but my mechanic told me that if I wanted to level the Trac a little I shouldn't put shackles on the rear. I had searched around long and hard on this site for several months and never heard of someone not putting shackles on the rear while getting the TT done. Lo and behold when it was done I was surprised to see that, after about an inch and a half on the front and no shackles the Trac was more level and the rear was still a little high. In fact I had no cladding to trim up front and only a little to trim in the rear passenger tire well because the plastic looked a little bent in compared to the driver rear well. Anyways, I wanted to know if anyone else has had the same experience; a TT without the need for rear shackles. Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
