Since I have noticed a lot of us XJ guys have horrible shackle angles I thought I would look into building a mount the relocates the shackle forward and lower to help with the angle. All of the steel will be 1/4" thick. And the sleeve will be basically that exact sleeve a shackle uses so it can easily bolt into the stock location.Also I wanted to make a part that was almost entirely bolt in. So here are a couple of pics from ProE. Have any of you tried this or looked into it farther than this?
