More additional Swivel frame Info…..The Willock unit is substantially heavier
duty than the Truckstell…. This might be because Willock manufactured Swivel units
For Medium and heavier duty truck…… I own Willock # SF-1…. It is what we reversed engineered to produce our original designed reproductions units….To give you an idea of a couple of differences, SF-1 Willock has eight inch reinforcing ˝” thick rings welded inside to attached the Shaft pivot tubes to the cross members….. This spreads the forces out over a greater area than simply welding the Pivot tubes to the vertical frame cross members…… (We use twelve “ reinforcing rings)…The shaft on SF-1 is SOLID….. not just a tube…..The overall mass is greater on the Willock…… Hope this provides a bit of additional Info…..
