If you're running a Jeep Cherokee XJ and want to get more out of your rear suspension, this Rough Country Shackle Relocation Kit is a tidy solution. It moves the stock shackle position to stop it bottoming out against the unibody — a common issue on XJs — and opens up significantly more range of motion for proper off-road articulation.
The kit includes frame brackets and shackle brackets, and works with both stock and aftermarket shackles. Five different mounting points let you dial in your preferred shackle angle depending on your setup, whether that's factory leaf springs or an aftermarket pack. Depending on which position you choose, you can also pick up around 38mm (1.5 inches) of lift as a bonus.
- Suits Jeep Cherokee XJ 2WD and 4WD (1984–2001)
- 5 mounting positions for adjustable shackle angle
- Up to 1.5in of lift depending on configuration
- 100% bolt-on installation — no cutting or welding
- Powder coated for durability
- Compatible with stock or aftermarket shackles and leaf springs
