Was looking at the Rize Industries stuff and their 'Leverage Arm' suspension looks pretty cool...anyone know anything about them?

Thanks in advance,

Dan

You are welcome.

No matter how blurry he is still evil.

Freaky.

Wow.

You can just feel the hatred in his eyes.

See my sharp teeth? I will kill you

Evil Fred, I have a front locker and will out wheel you anywhere.

I bet if Fred walks backwards he would bark love the devil, the devil is good.

OMG!!!! LMFAO!!!!

You guys bring teh funnay.

Does Fred's sharp teeth count as front lockers?

I think Cocky Cooper can out wheel Evil Fred any day. I have seen CC defy gravity in Moab. He even survived two 98.6 degree GOlden Showers on a 90 degree day (one if wich was severe).

Did we actually get Cooper on video? That was creepy how he did that on Escalator.

Give me a break! He couldn't even do Golden Crack. He had to be winc...... no not winched, carried over piggyback style by KenP.

He might be a good piss survivor but he's scared of the crack.

Cooper is ghay if he really had to be carried over. Do he really or are you guys making that up?

The leverage link is not a lift, it is just a way of getting a long travel shock in a confined space. I'm not entirely convinced you'd actually gain anything on a H2 though.

The IFS is the limiting factor, not necessarily the shocks. To get more travel out of an H2, you really need to start doing something different at the front end. A lift kit will get you considerably more travel, but it is still IFS at the end of day. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I thought this thread was about Fred and Cooper?!>$#%%^%#$@^%&^&

The leverage arm is, as Phil was explaining, a mechanism that replaces the need for extreme long travel shocks. If you have a suspension lift on a Jeep or something that has extreme articulation, the leverage arm would allow more traditional shocks to be utilized and not have to resort to long travel shocks.

It's the same concept used on the rear swingarm on bikes. Much more engineering and dynamics and dialing in.

I've seen it on something. Maybe desert racers/baha type trucks or something.

Leverage links are also common on F1 cars and the dreaded monster trucks. But alas...Rize does not currently offer anything for the H2 per the e-mail I got back from them today (despite the fact that they list an H2 on their website).

Oh yeah...nice mutt too!
