    I bought a used 74 Jeep CJ 5 with 32 x 11.5. It seems that their is a two inch body lift on the rear but none up front. Is this right?

    Also, the rear shackles measure 6" and the front measure 4". Is this typical or should they both be the same?

    No, all the pucks are the same except for the ones under the firewall. See the pictures in my post at the end of this thread. http://www.earlycj5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48640

    All the same from the factory. The factory shackles look like a very shallow piece of channel iron and are a little less then 4" in length IIRC.
