That and I don't like how low DB's hang.........

Yeah, they look funny, I'll give you that. But they'll clear anything the axle end will.

I'm happy with em, and $450 is still a lot more than $200.

$200 from where?

Rough Country essentially copied the RE design.

The braces are shorter, but that way you don't have to drop the crossmember like on the RE, which means you don't have to break and replace all the damn studs...

Yeah, Teraflex Plus sold me a set of Rubicon Express steel shims a couple months, 6* from what I remember. I bolted those to the springs before install. It's just too much angle for a stock drive shaft. So, 231 goes in soon enough.

Did anyone have problems running stock shackles and RE 1462's?

What was the RE part number on those 6* shims?

Also, no issues with my RE4.5 springs hitting the shackle on the spring box.

I am bump stopped very good on the rear so I only have about 3" up travel on the springs, I'm relying on droop due to the heavy load of gear in the back of my XJ.
