The sliders are nice.. just keep them clean.. what MOST people forget is the rubber bushings on old cars are hard and tend to bind up.. if you run shackles the old bushings can cause issues.. they can bind then snap free.. chassis's dont like to be upset.. thats part of the reasons that people really like the sliders.. they put a new item on the car that isnt binding... plus the sliders lower the back of the car and in most cases that helps on traction (gets the CG down a little more so its easier to get the front over the CG point)... but if people would just lube the rubber points now and then it would help
P-Body dude... I have Caltracs and Caltrack mono-leafs. I have brand new rubber bushings in my shackles. What would changing to sliders do for me? How much maintenance will I have to do on them to keep them working?
