Help For An Aussie on Missing Link
« on: August 06, 2007, 12:37:37 AM »
Hi all, I need some help from owners with what you call Missing Link, we call them Drop Shackles and they cost US$509 a pair over here.
I would like to put some pinnable ones on the front and back to get more articulation but with the 2" lifted springs I have, I will also put on the Sky front and rear shock mounts to get LTR shocks on and spacers to stop everything falling out. I would like to hear from anyone who has done this and how it went on and off road. I have considered all sorts of options and serched the forum but have not come up with a defintive answer, SPOA is illegal and I would like to keep it as simple and cheap as possible ;D

That sucks SPOA is not legal, have you thought about J$$|removethispart|@ Yj (wrangler) and spring under with missing link or can you build your own drop links , You could also get some rear spring and run them on the frount


good luck

Trail tough can sell the parts required to run YJ springs on custom brackets with drop shackles.  I don't think they're pinnable from the start, but you could probably make them work like that.  This way you could keep it spring under with the most flex possible.

Thanks for the replies, I was hoping to keep it really simple. I would get the parts from the US as every thing is twice as dear over here and would hope that if people think the ride would be ok I would just try the missing links first, I have never seen anyone here with the US version. As I said the people over here make a fantastic product but charge an arm and a leg for it.

You can make Trail Tough's pinable.  Matter of fact most people I know have bolted them shut. Flex is overrated in my humble opinion though. Spring under with some Emu's and lockers will get you a ton of places.

Don't bother with the wacky shackles. Go RUF with OME and you'll be pretty happy.
