Long Travel Suspension - Part 2: Theory
I'm moving forward with the 18" A-Arms. Across a range of 45°, we're looking at 13.3" of vertical travel at the tire. This assumes that the shock travel is 2.85". I believe it's actually over 3", but I haven't confirmed that yet. These dimensions are still all tentative.
I'm not using ball joints or heim joints on this build. More on that later.
Let's draw it up!
