Shackle lift and quick disconnects

[Sewie]

So here?s my take on the shackle lift and quick disconnects. I?ve been tracking down and putting together a list of the parts for awhile. Finally got everything and put it on this afternoon. Here?s what I used:

Shackles ? Warrior YJ rear 1.25? lift, part #WAR123 ? www.warriorproducts.com

These are 6" hole-to-hole, about 2.5" longer than stock. You can see how much beefier these are than the stockers. I actually bent one of the stock shackles at some point. Didn?t even notice until I took them off.






Bar Pin Eliminators ? Rocky Road Outfitters - http://www.rocky-road.com/zjbarpin.html

I wanted to match the rear shocks to the front but Bilstein doesn?t make the 5125 with a barpin. The BPE also moves the mounting point down about 1? to compensate for the shackle lift.



Swaybar Disconnects ? JKS Quicker Disconnects, WJ 0? lift front, part #3100 - http://store.jksmfg.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=QRDISC&Store_Code=JKS01&Catego ry_Code=Swaybar_Disconnects

You can adjust the length on these and at their shortest are around 1? longer than the OEM endlinks.



Shocks ? Bilstein 5125, part #BE56248H5 - http://www.bilstein.com/offroad_5125.php

These have 10? of travel and are valved the same as the Cognito/Bilstein front shocks.
