Is that someone taking a picture standing back down below?
If so, do we have copy of that picture. Was CP stopped and on the brakes right here? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>She was stopped at this point. You like those tires pointing all over, don't you?
Dave even stopped her twice on Escalator because he was freaking out over the tires going wherever they wanted. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I'm just trying to come up with a solution to that so that it's not so severe. One can't really say how much a role that had in the CV damage. Obviously when power is applied the tires are attempting to pull closer together and the tie rods are bending the centerlink like a straw.
It seems maybe the centerlink should need to be less flexible so that it doesn't get this severe.
Also, it would be interesting to try to see if the cognitos have a small effect on it. Since they limit the rotation on the centerlink they might control some of that flex.
Yeah, that bothers me and I think if, from an engineering standpoint, you could move the tie rods to the rear of the steering knuckles or do something to address this issue, it would go a long way to strengthening the IFS for off road.
