Jeep Shackle Reversal Kits

Lowest prices on Jeep Shackle Reversal Kits.By shackle reversal we mean that the pivoting shackle normally found on the front of the spring is moved to the rear and the fixed mount normally found on the rear is moved to the front.

Why would we want to do this? Reversing the shackles provides a much smoother ride and can help steering wander a bit. The smoother ride is a result of the movement of the spring and axle when it compresses over a bump. Normally when driving forward and the tire encounters a bump, the bump wants to push the tire back and up, while in the normal configuration as the spring compresses it wants to move the tire forward because the shackle swings forward, the result is that when you encounter a bump your Jeep gives you more of a jolt than it has to. This is most pronounced with highly arched lift springs, which is one big reason why Jeeps with flatter stock springs have a fairly reasonable ride.
