Very interesting, a pivot on a leaf spring perch??? anyone seen one of these b4 or know anything about them???

[MuddMachine]

Nothin new, Spidertrax uses a similiar unit on thier 1/4 elliptic kit. Allows the spring to be pulled straight rather than being twisted under hard articulation.

I know all about them, in fact it is on my upcoming product list...they really work well.

how are they on the street?
I am going to put a toy axles under the truck soon and i wouldn;t mid adding a set of those

[Mudslug]

I wouldn't recommend them honestly, you can feel them "move"when you are cornering....kinda like the ass moves like your on mud but the truck still tracks correctly. Its not a huge swing by any means but you know that they are there....its a subtle thing.

Think about it, the front of the spring is still static but you are adding lateral movement to the back.

Mudslugs lying... they'll make it perform like a top heavy indy car... in Mud... They should make it corner like it's on rails... just that the rails aren't fixed to anything....:beer:

couldn't resist man...
Shiat on road, and great offroad...

Toyota's have been using them for years in the Rubicon..

hahah kinda what i figured but thought i would ask
Maybe a sway bar with quick diconnects would solve that problem?

What I found works mint instead of those pivots... u know that clip that ties the leafs in ur pack together about 1/4 and 3/4 way along... instead of having those tight around the leafs.. leave some space along the top and put a hardened bolt though it alowing ur packs to fan out a bit under droop. this way when do d twist up, only ur main leaf starts to twist and the rest dont hop in till u really twist em up and the main reaches that bolt tight. its worked real mint 4 me for a few years now.
