STEP 8: Depending on your springs you may be able to now set the shackle angle at 60 degrees with
the springs hanging ( No Weight ) and everything will be fine, See Figure 12 . We suggest that you do
this as a starting point but once the hanger bracket has been clamped to the frame at the 60 degree
angle you then apply weight to the springs. The shackle angle should be straight up and down 90 de-
grees with the weight on the springs, see figure 13, If it is not 90 degrees than move the shackle
hanger brackets item “R” forward or back until the correct angle is achieved. The back of the bracket
will be between the forward body tub outrigger but may be positioned one way or the other to allow for
the correct shackle angle see figure 14.
STEP 9:
Once you have the bracket set in position tack the bracket in a few areas and then remove
the shackle hanger so you can fully weld the bracket to the frame. Weld the bracket fully front and
back, top and bottom. Be sure to weld across inside of frame, See figure 15.
STEP 10: Test drive the Jeep® . Chances are the steering wheel may not be centered. You can ad-
just the drag link to center it. Installing this shackle reversal system will not affect the alignment
(camber or toe-in), so having the Jeep® aligned is not necessary. The caster will increase slightly,
however it is a non-tire wearing angle. Go back and check all of your work and make sure everything
is done properly. Check the brake lines and make sure that they are not being stretched to far.
STEP 15:
Your drive shaft will need to have a long travel slip yoke installed to work properly with
this system. Call Tom Wood’s Custom Drive Shafts at: 877-497-4238. DO NOT TRY TO SHORT CUT
THIS STEP OR DAMAGE COULD OCCUR TO YOUR DRIVE TRAIN!!!
You are finished! Be sure to re-check all hardware for tightness after 100 miles. If you have any questions,
please call. Thank you for purchasing this product from M.O.R.E.™ Keep on Jeepin’.
