During these "kayaking" trips... are you actually going kayaking, or just mounting them up top and flexing the Jeep? HAHAHA! Just givin ya crap! Just found it funny that all your "went kayaking" pics were pics of the Jeep flexed with kayaks ontop.
Anyway... Nice XJ! You've done some good work to it. Keep it up!

UPDATE
I got my no lift shackle boxes
how they showed up
no Lift shackle boxes
THE BEEEF
and the cheap used adjustable shackles.
I also ordered HD OFFROAD rear section stiffeners but I got an email and refund on April 10. they must of stopped making them or they are making a new rear section stiffener. I don't know. so I am looking for a rear stiffener. I bought/have
JCR front section
IRO middle section
I did not plan on ever going over 33's size tires with this now being a overland/expediction rig.
with mostly 80% road and 20% dirt. do I need rear stiffeners?

Good luck on the shackle relocation install! Should be easy once you get all those spot welds drilled out. And BTW, I believe the shackles you got are going to rub the brackets. You may be able to clearance the bracket but its sure going to be close.

unfortunately, I'd have to agree. It's just the shape of those shackles. I have JKS shackles and haven't had any contact. Actually... I have an extra set (brand new). Think they're in the garage. I'll let them go for a solid price if you're interested.
