Looks promising. I have not seen this. Although I have seen a few guys disconnecting the OEM links altogether. This looks like to be a little safer option. I would love to hear from someone on here that has this and has tested it. Of course the manufacturer will tell you its great.

I dont think its manufactured from reading the article. But rather taking a current component and modifying for the 3.

Yep. That owner doesn't post here anymore, but there are details on some other sites.

How do those shackles improve flex?? And where do you get them?

Sam at Samco fab...the same guy doing the torsion bars makes a custom set for the H3. I have a thread on them here somewhere.

BTW the torsion bars are on order....you wanted a set right?

I think they are YJ shackles...from Rocky Road.

Sounds good....Still dont know how that type of longer shackle would still improve flex....Maybe because the leaf spring is in a flater position when the longer shackles are installed??

I think Im going to pass on the HD torsion bars.... I really think im going to attempt a solid axle swap soon... Im getting my ducks in a row right now.

He also added quick disconnects for the rear swaybar and longer shocks.
