Orbit Eyes™

HOW IT WORKS

THE PROBLEM

If you’ve done any seriously twisty ‘wheeling, you know how quickly regular poly spring bushings get chewed to dust. The reason is that the spring pack is U-bolted to the axle. And the traditional frame mount is rigid, too. So, as the axle angles over obstacles, the spring has no choice but to twist laterally. That not only chews up bushings, but it also limits axle articulation and stiffens the spring rate. A twisted spring cannot respond as well to terrain changes.

The Orbit-EYE Solution

Orbit-Eye™ Springs feature custom, larger-than-stock spring eyes in one or both ends of the spring. In place of regular poly bushings, Orbit-Eye Joints allow the spring to pivot in the frame hanger and/or shackle up to 46 degrees. The spring is not forced to twist as it follows the axle’s up and down movement.
