Question To reverse, or not to reverse...

The front shackles that is...

So, I am doing a SOA on my old OME springs and figure that since I am welding perches on, now is the time to decide. If I do reverse them I will probably use the M.O.R.E. stubbie mounts.

I have "heard" all the opinions on wether it is better to have the wheel forced into obstacles or to let them move back, but never really seen a reversed spring working in the rocks.

I'm not considering this for better on-road ride, it is a jeep. I really do want to know if there are any advantages to a shackle reverse off-road. I do like that the stubbie mounts provide a little better aproach angle, but more concerned about how this thing is going to climb...
Thanks,
kris.

Hey there Kris. Long time no talk I would give David W. and Tony P. a call they are both running them. I think Tony F. was running SRS on his CJ not sure. IF it were me I think I would do it. You are already going to replace your front DS.
