Years of development have produced the Ultimate Shackle. The Climax Drop Shackle (Patent Pending) was the first pin-able Scissor Shackle System.

Lifting a vehicle does not necessarily increase it's wheel travel and articulation. When tackling rocks or ruts you need flex. The Climax Drop Shackle, with the correct spring combination, will allow your vehicle suspension to drop and articulate into the ruts or space between rocks, allowing all four wheels to remain in contact with the terrain. Now you can traverse the roughest tracks with increased safety and ease.

The Climax Drop Shackle (Patent Pending) incorporates a pin mechanism where the pin can be removed in seconds to allow full flex on rough terrain then replaced just as quickly when returning to the road. Our shackle is the safest, strongest and well researched shackle on the market today. We have supplied full technical information at the end of this page.

Technical Information:

• Climax Drop Shackles have been designed to increase wheel travel and articulation.

• They are 100mm high at rest and a massive 200mm long when fully open.

• They are up to 6 times stronger than a standard shackle.

• They are supplied with a quick release pin mechanism which can be removed in seconds to go off-road or re-fitted just as quickly when returning on-road.

• They can be fitted to standard, raised or spring over suspension systems.

• These products are for off-road use only. An Engineer's certificate is required for on-road use.

• Soft or medium spring packs are best suited for the successful operation of Climax Drop Shackles.

• Use only original Climax replacement components.

• Lubricate bushes when fitting the shackles and occasionally use spray lube to keep the shackles lubricated. This will assist in the successful operation of the shackles.

• It is critical that shackle angles are correct priot to fitting Climax Drop Shackles.

• It is important that nyloc nuts are not overtightened when fitting the shackles. Only tighten until the flat washers stop spinning. Do not crush the bush or bend the side plates as this will inhibit the operation of the shackle.

• Climax Drop Shackles are best suited to bush tracks, rocks and ruts.

• Leave shackles pinned when on sand or in rally conditions.

• It is recommended to fit longer shock absorbers and brake lines with the drop shackles.

• Other products may be required to further enhance your suspension. These include.....

• Shock hoops

• Shock relocation brackets

• Ladder bars

• Wheel spacer (illegal on-road)
