Sulastic spring shackles

Looking for info / experiences from people who have used Sulastic shackles.

I have a 2012 F-350 single rear wheel cab and chassis in the fleet with a light aluminum flat bed.

Ride and handling loaded is great.

Empty in pickup truck grocery getter run around mode it’s a bit of a lumber wagon.

Yup I know c&c rear suspension is designed for heavier body/higher loaded duty cycles vs pickup truck. I enjoy the squat free camper hauling and towing...

Thinking of ordering some Sulastic shackles for it and the enclosed garage trailer.

Thanks

    The Sulastic has a mechanical stop when a heavy load is applied.

    I have found that my fifth wheel has enough load that the Sulastic is on the mechanical stop.

    But the Sulastic works fantastic when the trailer is not attached.

    There are also pretty decent reviews on youtube if you do a search on youtube you can find them.

    The best $300 I spend on my truck.
    They will not make dually riding like a Caddy, but I no longer am scared with driving empty truck over street covers.
