TeraFlex: Leaf Spring Shackles

The 1987–1995 YJ Jeep Wrangler is considered by many an anomaly in the Jeep world. Although the YJ introduced the Wrangler name, it shared many traits with the previous CJ–7 including its wheelbase and leaf spring suspension. However, the YJ featured a wider track with less ground clearance as well as new front and rear track bars and sway bars for better on-road stability. It’s also the only generation with square headlights.

Although most of our attention has been focused on late-model Wranglers (TJ, JK. JL, and now JT Gladiator) with coil spring suspensions, we do offer some leaf spring suspension components for the YJ Jeep Wrangler, Jeep CJ models, and Toyota FJ SUVs. Many of these parts also fit the International Scout 800 and Scout II, Suzuki Samurai, and Chevrolet S-10 and GMC S-15 Sonoma vehicles.

HD Shackle Kit – Front | HD Shackle Kit – Rear Kickback

Replace your flimsy stock shackles with these TeraFlex YJ: HD Shackle Kits. Our Front HD Shackles and Rear HD KickBack Shackles are constructed from 1/4” steel with an attractive zinc plating to resist corrosion. The bolted cross brace increases rigidity and strength and won’t bend and become a safety hazard.

Rear HD KickBack Shackles increase rear leaf spring travel for more off-road capability.

Sold in pairs.

Revolver Shackle Kits

The unique design of these TeraFlex Revolver Shackles allows them to hinge and rotate thus reducing stress on the leaf springs as they flex and compress. These self-supporting shackles fold against themselves on level ground.

Their bolt-on design allows them to be easily installed with aftermarket suspension systems for even more performance. Properly installed Revolver Shackles maximize articulation and wheel droop.

No other off-road product improves your vehicle’s trail performance with so little investment as the TeraFlex Revolver Shackle!

Sold in pairs. Replacement parts are available HERE.

Front Sway Bar Quick Disconnect Kits

TeraFlex Front Sway Bar Quick Disconnects are the industry leader thanks to their ease of use. The Sway Bar Links quickly disconnect and swing up out of the way for unrestricted axle articulation during off-roading. While connected for street use, the link provides immediate reaction during sway bar loading to eliminate excess play. This results in improved lateral control and steering response compared to the stock rubber sway bar link bushings.

The upper sway bar link end has an OEM quality polyurethane shoulder ball and socket for silent operation, long-term durability, and zero maintenance. The lower sway bar link end features a large polyurethane ball that slides over a stainless-steel pin for easy sway bar link removal.

Fits: 1987–1995 YJ Wrangler
