Citing one of Newton's Law brings no additional insight here...
What governs this is I = Ft (impulse equals force x time) and conservation of momentum and impulse (roughly).
Regardless of rope type, delivered impulse is roughly constant for a given vehicles mass and speed of tug. This impulse...
Hmmmm... says that Badlands with no Sasquatch isn't compatible. I think that's only for the 4 door? So this would work on my 2 door badlands non sas? Would be a cheaper option than broncbuster or 74 weld upgrades at this point.
Depends on your dealership or shop you go too. I'd also say most people wouldn't know the difference between an oil leak and condensation dripping from the evaporator core... so...
I work in parts and the only oil plugs we sell are to people who stripped them doing their own oil change. Also...
@BigMeatsBronco , I found this on the RCV website. Wonder if they mean for extra travel like what I'm running into. Maybe a bit longer Axle so the angles are better?
" This axle set is designed to be a direct factory replacement. Long travel suspension options available."
I have it swapped out but haven't taken the boot apart. Busy week. I was thinking the same thing so I wanted to look for wear patterns on the side of the cage.
Solution could be a spacer on the stub shaft next to the hub. It would push the shaft back and line up the balls in the center of...
I think I have the cause figured out. I just need to have a look at a few more things before I post my theory. Obviously the operating angle is not ideal, but there's something else actually causing it.
Wouldn't need bump stops, just the limiting straps for the excess droop. Wouldn't be too much. I mean, extra droop is no good if it Grenades your axle all over the trail......
I'd still have the same droop as someone with Sasquatch lets say. I just need it to not go past OEM specs...
Would be easy enough to add a small spacer or make an extension with some thick flat bar. If I needed to. Could be interesting to test and play around with.
Very nice set up! I'm still tweaking mine. But I just picked up one of those heated throws. I like using a UCO triple candle lantern for a little extra heat.
Yea, I wonder if I'd eventually Grenade RCV's at the angles I currently have.
So here are some real solutions I'm considering.
1- Install Vertex 5 inch coil overs and see where my droop is at. They are adjustable so I could limit it a bit that way.
2- Get these limiting straps from Bison...
