I was just at the custom shop looking for a price on the warrior lift shackles for my X.

He needs to know which Jeep they fit....'cause the leaf springs are a different width on the different Jeep models.

Or if anyone has done this already and has the part # handy, that would work too.

Thanks guys. :icon_cheers:

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't tell me anything about which shackles I'm supposed to use. I'm asking because the width of the leaf packs is different between the TJ, CJ, YJ...yadda yadda...you get the idea.

The parts guy needs to know which Jeep model the shackles fit that match the X.

Well looking at replacements, the leaf springs for the BII or Ex are 2.5" wide, the CJ (76-86), YJ, and XJ (84-01) are all listed as 2.5 for the rear, so I would say any one would work, cant say about the length though, each jeep may have the hangers in a different spot on the frame, so a different length would be needed to compensate for the same amount of lift on each different jeep.

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!

Yes it does. The title of the thread is Warrior #153. Thats the part number you need for your Ex.
