BIG Trailing Arm Travel = BIG Flex on the Rocks

[wayoflife]

The joys of new and custom BUT part of the fun! Some of these bugs are great to know now though and can only make things better from here after being fixed. This is why im really wanting to go 72.5” on the axles.

To be fair, our rear axle is off center by about an inch and a half. Recentering it will fix the rubbing. Going wider is nice but there are benefits to sticking with a standard axle width or at least, as standard as one that comes out of a crate like the UD60. Replacement shafts are a lot easier to get.

Okay, I have never been around a street legal vehicle with that much travel and I personally never intend to build one.

BUT, with THAT much travel, isn't there a concern of the drive shafts pulling apart?

This is just nuts. So rad.
