Replaced my ball joints last night. Not much has been going on since I moved into an apartment . Jeep needs an alignment and some how all my wheel weights went missing. Story of my life!

lol wish mine came with the 4.0... If it did i'd have a beast! I've gotta find a running 4.0 (or semi running), a trans prolly a ax15, DS's, and a front axle with 4:10's to match the rear.. otherwise mine would be 4wd right now

If you're just flat out buying the shackles i would get some Rocky Road shackles. I have them, and they're the only shackles made completely of 3/8 that i know of. Just for an example, mine ended up getting slid across a rather large rock that would have done some serious damage otherwise and it only scratched mine. (not sure the exacts of this, because needless to say at the times i knew Captain Morgan like he was my best friend) Probably not necessary to have them made of 3/8, but overkill is my favorite word most days.
