Post pics. Just installed a set on a 92 and wheeled it this weekend/ No problems at all! Did you possibly intall them upside down (nylon setting block on the frame side of the revolver) What are you running for a spring set up?

i had them on my yj for a while with no trouble. mine hit the steering box bracket during instal, but not once the wieght was on the tires. I would still be using mine if I didnt have reverse eye springs.

CLEMSON.............

What's the problem with Reverse eye springs?? That's what I'm running with revolvers/z-boxes. Is there going to be some problems down the road? Thanks

With my reverse eye RE 1.5" SOA springs, the revolvers actually were in a bind on the spring. The [ part right where it attaches to the spring eye was sitting on the main leaf, so bad in fact that it was keeping the springs from settling. I was actually thinking about switching to OME 2.5" springs just to use revolvers again.
