[QUOTE="zukiscott, post: 246607, member: 654"] Yea a shackle reversal is great for on road driving performance , but you better lookout for hardcore off roading with a shackle reverse cause you can slam into a ledge / big rock to hard and it will shove yer front axle back "also see it will let the axle swing back up under the jeep" so fast and so far that the front drive shaft slip will not / can not keep up and it will cause the driveshaft to perform a "DEATH POGO" manuever and start breakin crap from there back,, and also cause yer front tires to CRAM up into the fire wall on a hard landing :eek: There are folks that will argue that this can,t happen,,,, but it is simple math... when the shackles are on the rear of the springs , it forces the axle to go BACK as the axle moves up toward the frame,,, wich can put the front drive shaft in a very violent environment in wich to try and function properly in. guess yall can tell I ain,t no fan of a shackle reverse for ANY vehichle that will see hardcore off road driving ;D [/QUOTE]
