87mjdriver Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 bmaley79 I know how you feel. I have only had 5 days off in the month of jan. One inspection team came in for 3 days and then another week of specialized training. USCG has its long days too, no ruck sacks involved though. Can you send me a pic just to verify there condition, and let me know when you are free i will send a couple of bucks to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWLONGSHOT Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I read that your looking for shackles on the cheap. I hear that, but just wanna suggest the upgrade to JKS or similar XJ 1.5" lift shackles. Esp look for the "boomerang" style. As you may know stock XJ shackles are shorter then the factory MJ's by over 2", so a 1.5 to 1.75 XJ lift shackle will work out to just about STOCK SIZE for our MJ's. These are way stout and in the "boomerang" style get you a better angle for better ride!! Just sayin, CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87mjdriver Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 this rig is still a daily driver, so i need to get ahold of some then I will be selling the lift ones. they are in good shape, I am just riding to high, and I am going to get get some of those overload springs from hell creek suspension. Does anyone know how hard it is to replace the stock mj shackle bushings, what would be better rubber or poly? stock Mj are fine with me, I am doing this on a budget, like who isn't right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
