--- Quote from: "Bulli" ---Trust me is you fit ARB's (lockers) you want as much articulation as possible it keeps the car more stable allowing you to make progress( imho)
I believe that you are better to keep the wheels on the ground, and mine is safe but not great on the road.
RRB sorry but never had anti roll bars, really dont want them either... rock and ROLL!
--- End quote ---
if thats the case if you watch hammer down 2 (american rock crawling) the ones with the silly articulation going for keeping the wheels on the ground are the ones that end upside down as the wheels stay still & the body moves waaaaay out due to the travel & then comes crashing down,all because it has so much articulation
Bulli:
and i suppose they would be in an extreme rock crawling competition with NO articulation and anti roll bars...OH no they would be the nice sensible 4x4 they towed it to the event with...dont be silly!
Xtremeteam:
right sod it,i challenge you to bring ur tricked up gee wizzz wagon uphere for a play at drumclog(landyman ash;you aswell) cos that WILL sort the men from the boys,I challenge yo to go up death valley & come out at the top unaided,
this is a site where dont matter what you got,its how you use it that counts
Bulli:
hmmmm, i may take you up on that. Not that i think there is owt to prove i just like seeing different sites and its nice to make new friends.
You do see my point though..those yanks dont often dislocate their springs but do have huge travel...infact most use coil overs which by their nature cannot dislocate.40+inch tyres are needed to negotiate the rocks they cross and they are following a preset course...hey if they roll they dont often care they just get on with it.
Death valley sounds nice i could do with getting a tan ..im guessing because of its name its dry and hot???Any piccies?
Are you coming south at all? Fife is a fair way for me ...hows about a lakes weekend? Ash is way further south ...poor lad
Xtremeteam:
i do see your point,but u can also see mine that if you have lockers the fact the wheels of the ground due to a lack of articulation aint gonna be a problem,
dunno why its called death valley,theres one way in & one way out,(unless you fancy a 3 point turn)
its also wet as hell & a HUGE hole to get out off
BTW drumclog is just south of kilmarnock & is about 1 1/2 hour drive for me to get there,dont normally go much further than DC for offroading aloth i am planning on heading north for a wee trip over crimbo
