Have you noticed any extra side to side flex with them? I've thought about trying them but I'm scared they would make my truck feel loose in the rear.
None at all. It feels and handles like a soft riding 1/2 ton pickup but then carrying a load where the stop engages the truck rides normal. No side flex at all. We tried pushing them hard in curves, over really rough roads, anything we could think of to max out their design. We loaded the pickup to where the shackles were just about limited and just prior to hitting the stops to see if when driving across rough roads if the bouncing would cause a change in handling as the rubber shackle hit the stop and the regular truck springs took over. Not a problem. They gave a consistently softer ride.
It's kind of like a modified torsion suspension.
Theyre one of those deals of "why didn't I think of that?" Simple solution.
