Title: Running lift shackles on an XJ?
Post by: scrw on April 06, 2009, 06:31:30 PM

I am running greasable lift shackle on my XJ and have just been shown by the mot man that they touch the rear bumper bolts, not obvious when fitting them and only happens near full compression but there are signs of touching. Check yours, fix is a shorter bold or space it out with washers

I just chopped the end of the bolt of with a reciprocating saw - don't want anything inhibiting flex
