The Rago Fabrication Shackle Hangers: Why and when should I upgrade?

Navigating your way through your next suspension upgrade can be a little bit tricky. If you want your suspension to perform in the way you had always dreamed, an upgraded shackle hanger is the way to go. The most frequently asked question we get about shackle hangers is why do I need this? 

 Why do I need to put this on my Tacoma?

To answer is easy, but also kinda complicated at the same time. Simply put, the stock shackle hangers are not cutting the bill when a high-performance suspension system is added to the Tacoma. 

Why is that? when you upgrade your suspension system, the new leaf springs allow the suspension to droop or (go down) more than stock,  putting more strain on the stock hangers. This can cause a multitude of problems, including breaking your shackles, shuttering rear ends, and decreasing your ride performance.
