revolver shackles solution

[Ricky-venezuela]

i just wanted you to know that the only way you could use the teraflex revolver is by modifiying your rear shackle mount, you should find a toyota fj-40 ones, the reason is that the revolver will rest against your frame un less you modify the mount
i did it on my (changing the mount, and also chola did on his) mine doesnt exist anymore, since i got in an accident a wile ago, now i{m a toyota land cruiser FZJ-70 but i still love my explorer

I thought the big problem was the revolvers not being made to carry the weight of the Explorer/

You guys ever break one?

Ive heard Revolver shackles are worthless they promote wheel hop. I would imagine YJ revolvers would work though. I believe thier springs are the same width as ours. As far as strength goes i would imagine theyre plenty strong. As with most offroad components theyre over built though they dont look as beefy as warrior shackles.

I saw some on a pretty heavy looking Toyota with a flatdeck the guy made himself and he said he had them for over a year with no problems, so who knows??

If they were any good all the competitors running leafs would have them.

Food for thought.

only reason competetive crawlers dont use revolvers is because the unload at all the wrong times. Like when you are climbing a hill in 4Lo and all of a sudden you engine torqes the springs up to the unloaded position and snaps a spring in half...

that can be bad
