I'd consider going for a ride or driving a sierra with them before you fork out the funds for a set.

I had them on mine for ~ 6 months. I have never driven a more unstable car offroad. It could hang wheels into ruts but it was no more capable offroad. I'd say LESS capable, because it felt so offbalance on any angles.
Stock shackles made the car so much more pleasant to drive. I didn't need to fear lifting a wheel.

I have a rear set of superiors ready to go on but because the are so large it will raise the car to much. So was thinking of trying the climax ones. Yea I've had a few looks from the boys in blue since the tyres

I have a set of climax drop shackles let me know if you are interested and make an offer. They are the old type which you cannot lock.

Would it be possible to drill a hole through and make them pinable if so I'm keen. Unless someone else has pinable ones.

It's interesting how climax are setup pointing outwards where superior set there's up facing in maybe I should turn the superiors the other way and see wat happens

That's cool let me know when your ready. I might have a set coming I'll find out tomorrow if it doesn't work out I'm very keen. Other thing was did yours hit the fuel filler hose when facing inwards on the rear b4 you redid your mounts with chassis extention
