Ok The Truckstell joint measures 5 inches tall and 6 inches deep and is angled upwards. With the joint angling upwards the back of the cab must be trimmed slightly to fit the joint.
The Willock Joint measures Nine inches deep and 12 inches tall and is somewhat level.
The center line of the pivot point on the Willock appears to be about three inches lower than Truckstell joint due to its upward angle.
Both measurements are for one side of the joint so to get the overall width of the joint you must double the measurement.
Although the truckstell joint has tremendously more ground clearance the Willock joint dwarfs the truckstell joint in size. Did we sacrafice strength for ground clearance.
