|  Now For Something Different (Josh) This is a friend of mines truck. I thought it was really cool thinking outside the box. It's IFS IRS. With linkages to force the other arm down acting like a solid axle. Retaining the ground clearance of a IS rig.  Last edited by Cole82; 02-24-2006 at 10:44 PM. |

| Sweet looking idea. Forced articulation but only side to side instead of front to rear. |

| Hmmm, I like that setup, very clever. Has it been tested out yet? Any word on how well it performs? It looks to have potential. |

| Yes It works very well. It will keep up with non stick trucks. I don't know what you mean by mono suspension. It still has full drop and compresion. A few specs Just shy of 16" WB EVX 4wheel steering CVD's Revo center shaft Modded tq3 Spooled Font&rear 2 laths |

| i did the same style of cantilever setup on my e-maxx. helps the stock shocks to keep wheels at full travel. as 1 wheel comes up, it forces the other down. i use all 8 shocks tho. mine would lean sitting static on only the 4 shocks. i reinstalled the other 4 to standard mounting and that solved it. now i need to figure out how to stretch it. |
