I was looking in my new Mepco 4x4 mag today. They have a "Z-Box" for YJ's that appears to be a replacement leaf spring hanger taht flexes independant of the spring. Has anyone else seen this or used this and have more info on it? I just checked their website and it mentions nothing about it.
Thanks in advance, Jody

It mounts the pivot end (non-shackle) of the spring to the frame with the Z-Box that you see in the photo.
IMO, it makes for a really "loose" suspension. I've seen them in action on the trail/competition (on the test Jeep), and it has rolled several different times, and I think it is cause of the "loose" suspension.

P.S. It had Revolver Shackles as well. Gotta say though, it is a flexy monster!!!
