Default Where to find stock length shackles?

I'm in the process of lifting my XJ and the stock shackles are rust welded on the eyelets and aren't coming off so anyone know where to find stock length shackles? I'd prefer to get some from a commercial auto house (Pepboys, Advance, etc...) but have had no luck at my nearby ones. So any suggestions? Would like to put the rest of the toys back in the garage and get the Jeep out again. Thanks.

Jy or online. I dont think commercial places sell them. If there is a 4x4 shop around you they might have them but more than likely they would be extended shackles.

Hey, if stock shackles from the 88 fits yours then you can have mine for the cost of shipping. Pm me with the info. Me and my 88 live in southern utah, not too much rust in this environment. Just double checked and they are in good condition and the rubber bushing are decent too, but you can order replacement poly bushings fairly cheap. you will need new bolt though.

Thanks for the offer boss, I may have found a set locally but I will let you know if that falls through.
