Re: 77 chevy silverado lwb shackle question?
You will need to look under there yourself. There were two different lengths of leaf springs combined with SWB, LWB, step or fleet. Since you have a LWB Step, it would be really hard to be sure if the crossbrace will be in the way or not.
The easiest way to cut the brace if needed is to unbolt the stock shackle and remove it. With that out of the way, lower the spring down so you have enough room to work. Use a plasma cutter if available, or a cut off wheel if not.
