Garbage\POS/Junk!....they were in the JP mag as one of the most useless invention. They will open when you do down steep hills but not when you flex. I had 2 buds that ran te
them and they had nothing good to say.

Johnny get some boomerang shackel....

Might as well get some limb risers if you get these  ;D

X2! dont use them. i watched a buddy throttle up a hill and eveyr bump they opened up. the spring wrap-up was nasty, we found his driveshaft later that day had split at the weld.
they seem to work for slow flexing crawling, but any throttle and they want to open.
stay far away.

Johnny, I have a question for you, why do you think you need revolver shackles?  YJs are never going to flex like TJs but that does not mean they are not just as capable.  My rig with the 1/2" lift booms works very well.  Probably also has a little bit to do with the Alcans and OME shocks.
