I first noticed that on IG a couple days ago before Mel posted the pics you posted. Pretty badass. Not sure how those would do in the rocks? Bet it is a blast bombing through the desert though! Maybe this is why Eddie is getting rid of Rubicat? :idontknow: Trailing arm setup for Jet Li?

That would be epic for hauling ass through the desert! Can’t wait to see a video of it in action! :crazyeyes:

Looks really cool! Crazy amount of travel!!! Bet at speed it's killer.

I'm wondering the same... I'm still wrapping my head around suspension, so I'm unclear of the pros and cons. I think I can understand the benefit for bombing the desert, but unsure if it's good for crawling.

I would assume it's good because of the travel, but is there any loss of stability or anything else?

Are the upper arms deleted and the shocks moved from the axle to the arms? Is the EVOlever no longer needed with this setup?

Please educate me.

I've seen EVO do custom setups with these arms but now it sounds like they're going to make it available to the public.

Really? Are you sure you aren’t thinking about the envy arms they made for a while? If so, those were NOT trailing arms.

There was a Jeep that was heading to Dubai they did last year that had these trailing arms. Not sure if the travel was the same, but it definitely had trailing arms

This. I thought there was another one too, but I may be wrong.

So how well does this setup work in the rocks? Ultra 4's use trailing arms, no?

Most are yes. They work fine. Maybe drag a little more than a standard control arm but not horrible.
