Shackle lift... boomer vs straight???
Was wonderin which variety of lift shackle would have a greater effect on pinion angle......My xj is just about all ready to go for the summer except for this driveline angle issue of mine.... So I'm lookin for a cure back there.
1 1/4" will be what I am after and RE seems to make both varieties....from where I'm standin....the more my diff goes up.....the better
Thanx...Scott

Hmmm... not sure on this one. As far as the shackles go, my vote would be for the boomerang, but that's more from a shackle angle and performance perspective than a lift perspective.
