So when I was at redbird I saw something than left a bad taste in my mouth.


Let's discuss stacking shackles. One person says you're dumb if you don't. I say the complete opposite.

They only time you should stack shackles is to make more room in the scrap steel bin.

Haha thats kind of my thought process. I thought it was kind of a hillbilly hack

Are we talking a leaf end to shackle to shackle to frame mount? I can't imagine how to would handle let alone how it sets under compression?

Yes shackle on shackle action. It folds to the front of the Jeep and the bolt head and nut literally sit on the shackle box.... Just beating on the sheet metal

Sounds like a hillbilly way of trying to make something like the revolver shackles by teraflex, but they do not twist in the center......I give it 2 cheesy thumbs down.

Remember the Boomerang Shackles?
YOLO!, but not for long....

Man you'd probably crap yourself if you saw a buggy spring or a quarter elliptical setup!

People have to start somewhere and sadly its POS tech from 10-20 years ago.

I have no idea how interco makes such great tires. Then that turd. Sucks so bad and I can't figure why. No gap in the blocks.

We all started somewhere. But we all know metal in metal contact is not good. That's why I also don't use my fenders as bump stops anymore.
