The superior axles look sick!! I would definately buy those.

I can tell you first hand that my Superior Shackles (with the pins in) will out perform any other shackle on the market.
When the pin is pulled you would not be able to take my line.
The three of us were at Katemcy this year. Two sua and one soa. We were walkin' the rocks.

Link to a test I did with one of the first sets installed on a 60.

Definately the finishing touch to any good suspension setup.

I have Revolvers on my 40 and after 3 years I have only good to say about them. They are on the rear and have held up very well (were on when I pulled a 18 wheeler out). No funny unloading, or other strange handling, and the droop is unreal.

svo_jon,

What shackles do you have on the front?

i remember this making me nervous about revolving shackles, but then it proly wasn't the shackles that did it

I'm not trying to offend anyone, but it sounds like a novice driver that can't control his truck too well. I have never heard of too much flex.

yep in the same line ( no offend intention ) I thought, that revolvers maybe cause some special situations on the road .. curves, or in downhills.

GLTHFJ60:
I run the stock shacles in front. I have wanted the get a set of Revolvers for the front to try them out.

 

[RoddQLD]

I'm not sure that they recommend them for the front, unless the vehicle is off-road only.
I think that they would add more lateral flex and possibly effect handling.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

I don't think that lateral flex would be too much of a problem unless you're racing your truck, which we don't. I don't actually know though, it's just my opinion.

 

[RoddQLD]

I have heard reports of them effecting handling, although I wasn't really interested into reading into it as I doubt that I'd ever put them on my cruiser. I'e got a lockrite in the front and an ARB air locker waiting to go in the back.. and my cruiser is a DD and ocasional trail driving!!
