Re: CJ handling problems after 4" lift
Figure the shackles tilted the front end down or pinion up big time so
the shims would go in the back side of the spring perch to bring the
pinion back down and get the castor angles back to something sane.
For the rear, the article was right. The steep angle of the shaft
doesn't matter, having the u-joints open and close the same does. If
one u-joint opens more on one side than the other, they will be out of
sync and jam and vibrations will set in.
Even just with the 1" longer YJ shackles in mine, I get nasty vibes if
running with no load and my steering won't self center any more. When a
load drops the body down a bit, the angles are ok so the vibes go away.

Hey Bill,
Have you seen one of these track bars used on a CJ?

6" shackles!!! Take those off and go back to stock, or at most 1" longer
than stock. What you want is heavy duty shackles that are a little bit
longer than stock, not long shackles that are the same strenght as stock.
Shackles are a source of twist and bend in the suspension.

I suspect the shackles have changed the Caster angle to near zero, and you
need shims to get the caster back. The trouble is, this will present binding
problems for the front drive shaft, MAYBE.

I think you need the shortest possible shackles. This might mean they are
longer than stock, but nowhere near 6".

Re: CJ handling problems after 4" lift
Hi Tracy,
Nope, I wouldn't put my Jeep up on wobbly stilts, preferring to
radius my tub to fit 36" tires: http://www.----------.com/pismo.htm
http://www.----------.com/jeep68sand2.jpg To keep the center of gravity
low to be able to run side hill.
God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O
