About this part

Lift Shackles, fitment-checked

Rough Country RC0283 is a pair of bolt-on lift shackles for 1976–1995 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, Scrambler, and Wrangler 4WD models. Fitted at the front on YJ Wranglers they add 1 1/4in of height; fitted at the rear on CJ models they add 1 3/4in. Rounded shackle corners are shaped to keep clearance around surrounding components.

These lift shackles fit 1976–1995 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, Scrambler, and Wrangler 4WD applications, covering Base, Renegade, Laredo, Golden Eagle, Islander, Sahara, Sport, and the other submodels listed in the fitment section. Position determines the result: front placement on a YJ Wrangler yields 1 1/4in, while rear placement on a CJ yields 1 3/4in, along with the added ground clearance that comes with it. They ship as a pair and bolt on with no fabrication called out. Rough Country lists a 2-3 hours install time, and a downloadable installation guide is available before you start.
