I've built a couple of the shackle type anti-wraps with great success , one for a Suburban with a built 468 and 38" TSL's. It went from the king of spring wrap to a good performer in a couple hours!
The one downfall of the shackle style is they can be noisy on a well muffled rig... this was for a offroad rig?
I'm also not sure how a bunch of side load on a slip spline would accelerate wear and get sloppy and very noisy , it's worth a try.
The one big negative is the fact that the slip style forces you to put your tube joint mid-way down your top bar which is a good spot to start an unwanted bend and eventual failure.
