Climax shackles are not what ya fit first, they're what ya fit last. Get lockers, gears, flexy leaves, long travel shocks, and if you need more then consider the shackles. Consider them the icing on the cake. Personally I have Climax on the front and a 3/4 elliptical on the back. Works for me.

i agree with Buddy.. get a locker/s before anything, then look at drop shackles. I run the climax shackles on all corners, i dont "hate" them, but i dont love them either. The superiour ones are definatly worth the extra $$, as their not so harsh on the springs. But, if i was to do it all again, i would do spring mods rather than drop shackles (eg, RUF).
