About this part
Front Shackle Reversal Kit, fitment-checked
Rough Country 5059 is a front shackle reversal kit for 1976-1986 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler 4WD models. It bolts on and yields roughly 1/2 in of added suspension height. Use it with factory shackles only, paired with Rough Country or OEM factory leaf springs.
This front shackle reversal kit fits 1976-1986 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and Scrambler 4WD models across the trims listed in the fitment section, including Renegade, Laredo, and Golden Eagle. Repositioning the front shackles smooths out how the front leaf springs cycle and adds about 1/2 in of height. It is a bolt-on job with no kit components listed, and Rough Country rates the work at 3-4 hours. Confirm you are running factory shackles and either Rough Country or OEM springs before ordering, then pull the downloadable installation guide to plan the job.
