I have to agree with Jeepster 259, 100%. I have owned a set for about 3 or 4 years now. I have been to Moab twice and the divide ride and other places with them and they work great. The idea of problems with waterfall drops etc doesn,t hold water. If you get a set you won't regret it. More flex = wheels on the ground, period. Maybe the question should have specified only people with first hand experience and a clue reply.
well i dont do any long distance traveling in it at all i live in utah theres rock crawling in any direction you go from my house im running 33X13.50R15 super swampers bias ply tires so i dont care if its a rough ride i was just curiouse of how they do flexing and such on the rocks cuz right now my whole front end has the super flex joints on the ends so i want whatever is gonna be the best for the rear end to flex all the professional rock crawlers say that travel is better then lift so i fiqured this would help out on keeping the tires on the ground

HA i laugh cause i JUST realized why you would say that the shackles DID work awesome on your rig.ha, I laugh at all the bad posts about the Revolver Shackles, especially since 99% of the people who post that have never run them.
I bought a used set f these about 9 months ago and love them! I was a little worried before I got them because of all those negative posts, but it was a great deal I couldn't pass up so I bought them. No regrets at all. They have increased the flex in the rear tremedously! I run a 3-link long arm setup in front limited so that the coils come about 2" unseated (6" lift) and the rear flex almost matches that of the front.
I have only good things to say about them and have not experience any of the negative effects other people claim. Would I spend the $275 for them new...prob. not. If you can find a used set for a decent price, absolutely buy them. After running these, I don't think I could go back to regular shackles.
I'm sure some people have reason to not like them, but I have plenty of reason to really like them. So, that's my .02.
HA i laugh cause i JUST realized why you would say that the shackles DID work awesome on your rig.
this IS your florida mud whompin, swamp truggin, puddle jumper xj isnt it?
