Anyone ever doubled their shackles? The ones I have now are cheapie universal adjustable. I was wondering if I could put a pair of stock shackles in the hole for 1.5" lift to act like revolverI know Toyota guys do it.

similar to revolver shackles from what I am getting. generally frowned upon by guys that like predictable suspensions in the cherokee world. there are a lot of threads that you could read for peoples experience on them

Dont do it. it is not worth it. a properly set up lift shackle will preform to all of your needs.
i would recommend a shackle relocation box

boomerang shackles only help with clearance issues. the pivot points are still the same... (draw a line between mounting bolt and leaf bolt)
