Screw that... for the extra $$$, I'll just go Alcan instead. Speaking of which, anyone running their trick new orbit-eye springs?

hey granite, i came across a thread on them this morning, do a search i think you'll find it, you will need wider pring perches which are available, but i read some dissatisfied remarks about there drivability.

I had the teraflex revolvers on mine at one time. wow did they flex out great! On road was not that bad. kinda tippy. I felt like my center of gravity was higher than it really was.

The Superior shackles are a well engineered product. Overpriced yes, but they work well on and offroad. My truck has dearched OME springs, not sagging stock springs and they will simply not work as well without these shackles. It made a huge difference in droop which was what I was looking for. A leaf spring will not twist and with both ends attached your axle will only drop so much. This shackle will allow the spring to drop and cause the shackle to twist as the picture shows. My truck would have had a tire 3 feet in the air on this obstacle without them. The only down side is cost.
