Stiffler has been designing some for a long long time now. Last I heard he was redesigning them based off people having concerns with how low the axle brackets hung. Since then I haven't heard back from him him to get a status on them.

The axle brackets on mine are even with the axle where the bar connects.

The JLPs would be my choice after the Stifflers, if there ever released. Reason being is that the Stifflers have heims on each end which allows for adjustment. The JLPs have bushings which aren't adjustable and wear out over time.
