Hey,

I have always wondered what makes the suspension and axles different from other vehicles. I am probably not wording it right. You know how they kinda bend and give, how does it do that? I have always wondered- like is it hinged in someway? Does anyone know what I am talking about? It always amazes me.

Now there's a confusing answer http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

So there is nothing different about the H2's system, you know how one tire on the same axel as another tire will hang very low and suspended when on a rock for instance, and the other one will be high. They just look weird on obstacles and such and I thought there was something special. Or did you just tell me..I don't know those abbreviations. Sorry, I'm a dork.

The articulation, that's it. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif It does look really cool, it's one of my favorite things to watch when off-roading.

Now I can see your point on the front axle as well, more wheels on the ground would help.

Thanks again!

It really is what makes the truck what it is and is what separates it from the rest of the pack. It has an H2 body on top of it. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Don't feel bad, I asked Phil a simple question about offset and backspacing on wheels, and I had to go to the tire store and the dictionary to figure out what he said. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
