Test results are in:
I now love dark roads. The light is pure white, no blue or yellow tint. Coverage is great. Cutoff is crisp and clean. Brightness is impressive. The lows are perfect for driving around town and in traffic without blinding anyone, and the highs illuminate an incredible area. High beam pattern perfectly compliments my light bar, so there aren't any more dim spots on back roads.
I got really nervous when I first installed them cause they didn't wash out the wall I was aiming on, but these are outstanding.

Best I can do for you with my cell phone, but it doesn't replicate night well. Also, the illumination of trees on the sides of the road from the high beams is definitely noteworthy. One day I'll get good pics to show off the output and pattern.

I got home from work last night and found my new M.O.R.E. boomerang shackles waiting for me at my door. I got two pairs (front and rear) of the 1/4" thick boomerang shackles with 9/16" greasable bolts and 5/8" lift. They came disassembled (as expected) in a package about half the size of a shoebox. It weighed 21lbs 
I don't have a pic of my own for you, but these things are 100% Grade A American beef. Here's one I pulled off Google:
I'm looking forward to installing them so I can get some side-by-side pics with the stock shackles.

They may be "Pure Beef" but are they "Tim Proof"?
Which on a side note I vote should be added to the jeeping community vernacular.
For example "Hey what did you do to your Jeep today" "Well I Tim Proofed my axle and although it should last forever I'll be happy if it makes it through the weekend before needing a complete rebuild."
