They look the shite, but I can see one problem, ONLY $499 a pair . I spose you get what you pay for tho, they DO LOOK THE SHITE! Do you get any lift? If so I may be interested as well... one day...

If the shackles are to be used on a road then there are locking pins that are quickly fitted to keep the shackle in the closed position, then there is no difference in cornering at high speed.

Here's a pic of my brothers Hilux, it has longer springs (about 300mm), johnny joint's in the front eyes to allow it to twist more, layed over shocks as you can see and a track bar. It works great offroad (no good for hill climbs though), onroad it's not too bad, but he try's to avoid that.

Why is it shit on hills ???
I didn't say it was shit. It gets a bit of wheel tramp and you just have to stop, then start again. Maybe from the longer rear leaves, i'm not sure. It's only steep loose dirt type hills, but the shackles may not have anything to do with this.HEY CHARGER wrote:RV wrote:Here's a pic of my brothers Hilux, it has longer springs (about 300mm), johnny joint's in the front eyes to allow it to twist more, layed over shocks as you can see and a track bar.
