[QUOTE="Gilaguy23, post: 430358, member: 19498"] Not sure what the cost/benefit is on these compared to regular greasable shackles set up with correct springs. The only time I needed these type shackles that prevent "shackle inversion" would have been with the POS procrap springs I put on a CJ. The springs were to short IMO and the shackles were tipped at like a 40 degree angle toward the spring eyes. Drop one side down and the shackle flipped over and jammed up against the frame. Id have to take a prybar to flip it back the right way. There is lots of reading on "normal" shackle angle if you interested and have problems with inversion. I have basic HD greaseable ones and they are Okie dokie. [/QUOTE]
