Where to buy extended shackles?
I’m looking to raise the rear of my 03 Club Car DS 2-3”. Where can I purchase some shackles?

David @ Revolution Golf Cars just supplied a member with extended shackles not to long ago, and they were reasonably priced!
Call, or email him!  https://www.revolutiongolfcars.com/ |

Re: Where to buy extended shackles?
I only needed 1 1/4" on my Precedent so I made a set in about 20 minutes and a few $. All I needed was some steel flat bar and grade 8 bolts (available at most hardware stores), bench vise, hammer, propane torch, drill and something to cut the flat bar. Remove the rear bolt on the springs jack up the back of the cart to your desired height, measure between the holes and start fabricating. I found that on my wife's cart there was 3/8" difference between sides that I was able to compensate for. If they ever slip I'll get them tack welded in place.

Sb, it swivels at the top of that bracket. He just extended what was the original shackles.

Not if he welds them in place. I don't know about RXVs but most I've seen are the same on top and bottom, two rubber grommets and a bolt running though a pipe so they can't be tightened down, not metal against metal locked down with lock washers.

Top as in 5 inches above the bolts he added. I am pretty sure that y bracket is the original shackle.
