English term

drop shackle

English to Portuguese Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
I'm translating a car reality show and one of the hosts says he wants the truck to come down two more inches, so he's putting drop spindles and drop shackles in the back.

I found on another question the translation for "drop spindle", but not for "drop shackle", even using Google Lens search.

Pergunto-me se também não será sinónimo de "bow shackle" (ou manilha em lira).

European Portuguese I forgot to mention: it's European Portuguese.
I searched "jumelo" and it seems a Brazilian word.

Maybe "manilha curta"?

Lowering shackles are a great, easy way for you to gain a few inches of drop at the rear axle. Rear leaf spring shackles are built to move the leaf spring up and in turn moves the axle closer to the frame.

Não encontrei nenhuma explicação do termo em português, mas encontrei em inglês (acima) e também encontrei a peça para venda (Amazon e Mercado Livre) e comparei a imagem do produto.
