Hmmm, not alot in the vid, but from what I could see...they don't allow much suspension movement? Is that your goal?

I feel like if you could find an alternatively colored flexible tubing to use, you'd have a product that would look cooler, but market better too. Torque |

Waiting for colored latex tube,the shocks flex when needed then they pull the tires back to the ground.Limited flex ,kinda like droop but on side hills they don't drop out. Latex will have different draws from very soft to lock down straight up climbing.

I've seen these shocks run at our season open and they were very impressive. If the video on this clip was from there, you guys wouldn't be so negative about these things. They really are cool. |

| not a lot though.. i just went from a j2-tt on 4" shocks which almost got 90* of articulation, to our new chassis here in vegas on 3.5" shocks limited to 3". it flexes less than half of what the j2 did but its drives 1110000000000 times better! big articulation is overrated. ill be looking forward to seeing these at nationals. |

I dont get it I guess. If you limit articulation that much might as well not have any suspension then, or just lower your rig a bunch and put touring shocks on it

umm.... the truck in the vid lifts tires left and right.... it seems like it would perform better with regular shocks on it.. but like i said im talking **** (mods, take note) im just not seeing the effectiveness... like i said ill need to see them in person in moab. | |
