Well, instead of physics, which wasn't working out for you...you NOW say that the revolver ONLY has traction on pavement.
Does that mean that on DIRT, you think the REVOLVER would slip first?
You ADMIT that the leverage PUSHING DOWN THE DROOPED SIDE, when the opposite side is STUFFED...is the SAME for ANY live axle with ANY SHACKLE.
So why would a revolver shackle change that?
Its NOT that pavement doesn't give better traction than ice...its just that the principle is that same...its just a question of degree for the test...when, not if, it would slip...I'm sure BOTH would slip sooner on ice...BUT -
Look - THE PAVEMENT WAS THE SAME TRACTION COEFFICIENT FOR BOTH SHACKLES....and the order of slippage was Regular shackle slipped first...THEN the Revolver.
If it was "the pavement"...
WHY did the regular lift shackle slip FIRST?
