Default putting shackles off a mj (comanchee) on a xj

i heard from someone that you can take shackles of a mj (comanche) and they are like putting a 1 inch lift on your jeep im askin because i can get them from my local pick and pull for 10 and i can get some 1.5 spacers from my friend for free and i have no cash really to buy a lift at the moment as i work at six flags so i got a real teen budget so im looking for some help getting fact from fiction if anyone could help it would be much appreciated thanks
