I saw this on a TV show and I thought it looked cool, so I was wondering does anyone have it?

and someone sya sits stops axle wrap...

"On November 11th 98, after fitting a Roadmaster Active Suspension kit to my Ford F150 Pick-up, I took the vehicle back to the track. My times went from 15.2 down to 14.8 seconds. This is the fastest known 1/4 mile time recorded for a stock block 4.6 liter modular motorized truck. The wheel hop and axle wrap from the rear axle has gone. All due to fitting a Roadmaster to this vehicle"

and heres what they say about axle wrap: http://www.activesuspension.com/axlewrap.htm

Yeah I saw that on tv too.. I've got to wonder what that's going to do for your flex though. Also the way it is mounted against the axle-side of the thing, makes me wonder if in some rough bumps or situations, it'll add to your old metal-fatiguing spring pads and bend or rip them off. I think Riverbeast showed us how soft those perches really are.
