Ok so its a 92 triton single cab ute since i lifted it 2"(via a reset Rancho ADD A LEAF) every time i head of road it inverts the drivers side leaf shackle now what i want to do rather than buying anti-inversions shackles, is run longer leaves this should stop the shackle from inverting and should articlate more right? will i have to get some custom leafs made up or can i just use longer mains of another car i have heard of people using ford springs but havent had a chance to look into this yet can someone spred some light on this or can someone tell me of another spring that would work. Curently my leaves measure 1200mm long eye to eye i need one at least 1300-1350mm.

Cheers Jonezy.

Not sure what your talking about inverting think you mean it goes from: / to \ but not sure.

But here in the states last time I checked on ebay they do sell teraflex revolving shackles that will work on this model triton found here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TeraFlex ... ccessories
They say there for a dodge raider which was a 2 door pajero sold by dodge, it uses the same suspsension as our tritons.


There supposed to help when offroading with flex and all that. Might solve your inverting problem. Best of luck dont see many of these model tritons out an about.

I need to get my 91 3.0 back on the road.....
