Another thread on fixing shackle angle
91 xj limited, 4.0, auto, 162k. Heep was lifted when I got her, was told it's either a 3 or 31/2 skyjacker lift. My leafs are pretty flat and my shackle angle is 90. Any pointers on how I can remedy this on a budget? I'm fairly mechanically inclined, so I hope to fix this myself. I could prob use new shocks too...

lol Bilstien shocks is not "on a budget".
Anyway get the no-lift relocation brackets. Brilliant little gizmos. Though if you move your shackle far enough forward you might lose a chunk of height. Are those shackles adjustable with different mounting holes? If so you might want to look at the standard type that add lift.
