OK I installed a lift and then new JKS quick disconnects .
I had to pull down on the passenger side about 1 inch to get the disconnect pin in ... but not on the drivers side.
WHAT YALL THINK ??? Will It be ok and adjust after driving or what ???NOTE: the drivers side shackle is slightly twisted ?

sounds like the driverside of your jeep sits lower by 1 inch. I guess it would come down to bresking out the tape measure to get some numbers and find out for sure....Do you want to do something about it? I would think worn bushings/sagging springs/tire wear/slight twist in the frame/unlevel ground could be possible culprits. I had a similar prob with my buddies YJ I didnt think much of it at the time as iI didnt have to move it far to get it to link up.

It's a pretty common problem to have to pry one side to get them connected. If your not on flat level ground they can be almost impossable to connect.
