They are somewhat bolt in. Are these similar to Teraflex Revolvers? If so, I'd stay away from them, based on my reading from other peoples experience.

yeah, it's pretty much the same design, just reversed from the look of it.  some guys love them, others hate em.  It has to do with the setup of the spring and the weight of the truck, as far as I can tell.
