The cost for these shackles was in the $30s if I remember correctly.
i have Dakota shackles on mine - 1" longer than XJ shackles. (1/2" lift at 45* angle)

Drove the zj around last night just to find it won't get to operating temp now. I always knew the thermostat was funky, it always had trouble opening in the summer. So I'll probably go and grab a factory t-stat from the stealership today.
