Spring shackles for 89 MJ LWB

[Warren Mohler]

Hi guys I am looking for spring shackles Mopar # 52001828 is NLA from the dealer. I don't want to lift the truck, I like the way it sits now but its time to replace leaf springs and shackles are rusted pretty bad. bushing bolt hole to bolt hole is approx. 4.25 in. I have found several on Ebay that say 1-2 in. lift which may not be too bad at 1in. I need some input. THANKS

XJ shackles are shorter than MJs, so the 1" is likely the lift for MJs, and the 2" for XJs.  ask them for a hole-to-hole dimension.  divide the extra length in half and that'll be the lift to your truck.

There's a Ford or Chevy shackle that's almost perfect. I don't have a part number but do your research.

They're Ford.  I ordered and have measured them against the stock ones and they appear to be identical.  They haven't been installed yet so still unknown in that sense.  This link says it's their last one.  Haven't looked to see if there are other sellers.  Part # is F65Z-5776-DB.
