Default Rear lift question. Please Help

Ok im looking the lift tge rear of my Hummer 1/2 in only. I have searched everywhere and the shortest lift shackles are 1in lift. My question is, do they really give you 1 in of lift or do you end up with 1/2, 3/4, ect. I had an old Jeep and the lift shackles that were suposse to be 2in gave 1 1/4. Just asking before i pull the trigger. Any help would be appriciated. Thanks

Samco makes an excellent 2" shackle for H3's
I feel it's superior to the Warrior.

Like all 2" shackles, it lifts you 3/4" at the rear tire.

Just placed my order from Central. Thank you for your help. I should expect a 1/4 to 1/2 lift with these?

Glad it worked out for you. I'd say the 1/4"-1/2" is accurate. Our 128's lifted the rear about an inch (+/-).

I ordered mine by phone and they sold them to me for less than the $54.27 listed on the website. Did you get a better price as well?

$54 shipped to my door. Quick question for you if you dont mind, Did you use stock hardwear to install the shackles?

I used the hardware that came with the shackles.

If I would go with the samco shackles, is it just as simple as removing the stock and replacing with samco? Or would other parts be needed?
