I was looking at these on the rovertym web site. What are the main advantages of these do they help a lot in castor correction or is it just as good as the rear links he sells for 250. And I shouldn't waste $200 more on them. |

They use a heim joint instead of a bushing where the link connects to the frame. They are also longer (i think) than his normal trailing arms. These are made to improve flex (bushings will limit the rear flex because of binding) They in no way affect castor, as these are for the rear axle. IMHO, From the sounds of it, you do not need these links... |

they flex better due to lack of bushing. ever seen a long arm kit on a jeep or similar. while not a longer arm it still has the same principle just shorter. Has any body really built a "long arm" suspension for the DIsco's?? I got to play around with my friends TJ thats got a Rubicon Express long arm setup and its bad ass...I can recall seeing a Disco with coil overs on d-web a while back that looked like it had something similar... |
