This system has all of the features as the 7686-1, however it comes with wider tubes and bushings to insert in the frame so you can install the wider Jeep® YJ Wrangler springs. Why, you ask? The Wrangler springs typically have a softer spring rate than CJ's adding to flexibility and ride quality. This system comes with the pivot brackets fully welded. Complete with instructions. The front driveshaft will need to be modified with a long travel slip in stub. (Wider U-Bolt plates not provided).
This S.R.S. will not lift the front of your Jeep with the standard brackets, and will actually drop the front of your jeep 7/8" with the stubby brackets. Stubby front brackets will also increase caster 3-4 degrees.
Includes all hardware shown in photo and shackle plates.
| Options | Powder coated black, No powder coating, Stubby powder coated black, Stubby no powder coating, No powder coating, u-weld standard |

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
What’s the difference between the stubby and non stubby shackle reversal system? I’m trying to decide which one would be best for sua and old man emu cs036r springs. Thanks!
Jacob,
The stubby version lowers your front end 1-1/2" and keeps our center of gravity low vs. raising your body and bumper (not axle clearance) for ground clearance. It will also increase castor angle 3-4 degrease for all shackle reversals no matter regular or stubby.
Thanks

Hi Is there a way to locate the rear of the spring if you’re using 4” lift springs?
Scott,
How you set your rear spring location is to make sure all your finished weight when you are done with your project is in the Jeep and then after you put the all the weight in, set your shackle plate to 90 degrees or plumb.
Thanks,
Scott
