Flexing pics

Anyone notice the fact that the shaft section is way too long for the body. They have to have some kind of slip shaft inside or something.

 

If you are talking about that coil over on the back passenger I think you are seeing it wrong. Or I am maybe.

 

That is exactly what I am talking about look at the shock body and the coil lengths and then look at the shaft . Something doesn't add up there.

 

now I see what you mean. haha It must have some sort of a spring seat on the shaft I guess

 

That's interesting for sure. You can see the compressed shock and see it all tucks in there. It's like it's a duel shaft or something. Or he pulled his shock out and went for glory!

 

First, sorry for the bad quality of the pictures, they were taking with a camera phone and it was getting a little dark.

So a buddy and I were in his heep and he made me take this one of him trying to get some flex.



A day later, I was in my 1st gen and found a little homemade RTI ramp and took these. You can see that the SAS'ed front flexes pretty well, I just can seem to get the back to flex as much thou.

 

Pretty good details for GTA V. When did Jeeps start getting round wheel arches?

 

A different angle of the previous pic:

 

Probably an easy way to not get in trouble for using the vehicle. Modify them a little and call them another name.

Sweet SAS'ed 2nd gen!

 

Nice RC man!!! haha Axial is getting pretty good with the details on those things

 

Yeah I am lost to as to what it is. If you look closely at that springs where shaft should be there is some kinda black shaft or something. I have been looking at links for the last few years and no matter the geometry. I have net seen a functional x up like that before that used a non custom CO

 

I thought it was all part of the coilover? Looks like a piston extended out of the bottom?
Looks like the lower coil was removed?

^^^^ AUSJEEP. He's on Pirate. Hydraulic coilovers.

 

It's a Jeep thing that's why we don't understand

 

That just might be one of those Jeep things that I wish my Taco would catch. haha

 

I'm trying as hard as I can to not swap all the running gear from the Jeep to the Tacoma.

 

Out testing the new mid-travel suspension. Everything was great up front, just need extended rear shocks now. Overall, a super fun day in the mountains

 

HHHMMM LOOKING FOR A SPLAT AND SQUIRT THAT PIC MAKES ME THINK.BUT IM JUST PLAYING IM SURE IT WAS SAFER THAN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.
