There are supposed to be two bolts that hold each front shackle hanger and a rivet directly in front of the bolts. What I did (as seen on the web) was grind off the head of the rivet, knock it out, unbolt the hanger and move it forward using the rivet hole for one bolt and the existing front bolt hole for the other bolt. This moves the hanger forward about one inch and the holes line up fine. I used rear CJ hangers for the front as they are the right width for YJ springs and bolt right on the CJ's front. The article recommended welding the cross member to the frame before removing the rivets to prevent movement. It seems yours has already been modified so welding may be unnecessary. The rivets may already be gone also. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
