i wouldn't pay more then $1.25 but only if it came with tail shaft extensions, longer shocks and longer brake lines.

plus they just look dodgy.

If they came on my car I'd sell them for $200 for the set if they're in good nick.

A captive coil wont droop out, it is help in place. A drop shackle will "flop" down. Its like having a non captive coil spring, which is shit.

Read it, and think about the two words

"captive"

"coil"















:finger:


Basically a coil spring that is held in place both ends so it can't come out.

As opposed to an uncaptive which means the coil spring can either fall away on full droop, or is held in place one end and has a 'cone' on the other to guide it back to its mount.

I meant to say un captive but iPhone didn't agree. A lot of the coiled trucks I see are un captive. A lot of coiled trucks at ttc are un captive

what does coils have to do with shackels.

Post subject:  Re: climax drop shackels

referring to them unloading the vehicles weight in an uncontrolled manner.

Post subject:  Re: climax drop shackels

talking about a similar action in which a spring "flexes" without spring action.
such as a drop shackle or a coil that can detach from the chassis.

Acutally not that many. I can only think of a few that still run non captive springs these days.

I agree.. $200ish would be a good price. When I got mine they were $200ea (climax shackles), so with half buggered bushes etc I reckon $200ish for the lot would be fair :)
