There is a Myth that you cant become an RPM member untill your front tires look like that!

Sorry Wild, its only a myth! Move about 3500 miles closer and I see what I can do.

Hi Mike,

I was knocking around on my PC the other day.

Q: Have you ever checked out Evan Walkers old 2000? Ind Suspended rock crawler?

He reckons it was no good on side hills though - that may be the trade off with his design over a more conventional set up - Eg: Kick

That is some nice thinking out of the box  . But would that be road legal having only hydraulic steering?

BTW, I'm following this closely to learn more about improving the ifs front of the kick. And I like what you allready did to it Mike  .

Hi Mikey! I can't wait to see you in Moab. BTW do you like the Mt. Dew Pitch Black soda?

-Eric

Walker is my hero And eric, you know better than talking about pitch black around Zig.

Well gentlemen,

A bit of light humour:

Yeah you can join my fan club Zig ( Wishfull thinking, I know what you meant )

Yes "Uncivilised" - Walker did pull the IF Sus and beam it front and rear - BUGGER

Mike - we don't hate you ( much ), just trying to help out . One thing I will say though - your rig is AWESOME and what ever you do is really going to take some nutting out - it is very difficult to improve on perfection ( I mean it has to be close as far as Kicks go - right ).

ZeusZuki.

Eric, I do any Dew as long as its not diet! Dew and Donuts, breakfast of champions. I really havent thought much of walker... or his setup because I dont see how I could make it safe and streetable. 

Mike

"Walker, your the greatest!" (Golf clap) ------------------------(Mike pukes)

Mike,
Yeah I know what you mean. Walkers rigs IS works in on a different plane than the standard kick.

I would imagine that during a cycle from full compression to full droop it must have massive Castor and Camber changes ( but no tyre scrub! ) - what if you adopted the long arm concept on your kick ( in the standard plane of course ) and put up with the Castor and camber changes ( and tyre scrub ) during full flex - it will still ride nice on the highway if you get the geometry right at static ride height
I mean you already have the half shafts more or less sorted out for this and the drag link pivot points could be changed to reduce bump steer

OR - have you already made up your mind?

Oh please - somebody shoot me and put me out of my misery :'(
