BC Broncos rear spring rockers?

[broncotom]

Alright guys, I've been considering BC's spring rockers for a while. What is everybody's oppinion of them? Seems like a great idea but I want to know if anybody on here is running them. like/dislike, worth the money? Mine is mainly offroad but I drive it around town every once in a while.

I've had a set on for a couple of years now and I like them alot. They will let the rear axle "wiggle" some, its worse with alot of arch in the springs. I only have 3.5 lift springs so its not to bad but is noticable on the street. If you want to get every bit of articulation out of your rig then they will help.

i had a pair on a rig several years ago and didnt like them. the rear felt like it wanted to wander from side to side.....a rear trac bar probably would have fixed it;D

looks like someone did a great job fabbing that up, but with all that work...why not link the rear??:?

Those were a big thing 5 years ago or so. Don't hear much about them anymore. From back when they were the thing I remember that they worked better on stiff springs.

There was a write up and photo sequence in a Bronco driver a couple years ago where a full size with leaf rockers (don't know who's) rolled. You can see in the photo sequence where it landed a bit off camber during a climb and the axle kicked out to the side letting the bronco go over. Personally I am not a fan of them. I put them in the same ramp candy as revolver shackles. Great on the ramp, wouldn't want to be wheeling or driving on the road with them.

I run them on and offroad, on the street I got locks on that help eliminate body roll.. Works great offroad and get a real pucker factor in offcamber situations.. I thought off running a single link torque and centering bar but then decided on a 4 link for some new axles that came my way....

Here is some pics of it now with the EB 9".....
