That was a huge downside to us living on the road full time. It limited the tools we could have at our disposal and no space to install parts even when we wanted. We were lucky shops we visited would even let us film (most of their insurance companies would probably not have been happy about it).

@mathewwhite9152 2 жыл бұрын
In the interest of deleting my ignorance . . . could you go with longer/taller springs that had less springiness or varying rate so you could extend (delete?) the limit strap? Would that be of any benefit? like i said, just displaying my ignorance. Plus Chris, you're a doggone genius. Cool innovations resulting from Kevin always pushing for more and Chris stepping up.
@LiteBrite 2 жыл бұрын
Yes you can absolutely go with a multi rate spring where one of the rates is just there for extension but it will add height to where the vehicle is at rest and the goal is always to keep center of gravity low. This is why people go with Coilovers but even then if you plan to jump it or send it your want limit straps but that’s just so you don’t pull the coilover apart

I’m dealing with this exact issue. At full flex at AOAA in Pennsylvania I got bound up. Tom woods driveshaft yoke got stuck against auxiliary battery skid plate. Actually bent the shaft slightly trying to get out of it. Sending my shaft back to Tom Woods on Monday. I’m warrantied, so cutting out the bend, replacing the yoke, and rebalancing it. Hoping that fixes it. In a 2023 Rubicon on 37”
