Rough ride

[toximus]

Gotta follow the instructions bruh. Otherwise stuff happens and good parts get a bad rap.

I will say that I always torqued them to feel though.

So which is it?

 

[jjvw]

In and of itself, poly deformation isn't a problem. Where it becomes a problem in a body lift is that each puck may be deforming a different amount (due to varying torque on the body mount bolts, twisting of the frame, flex in the tub, etc) and they no longer support the tub as they should. That leads to broken spot welds and other bad things, as has been experienced by others.

The JKS body lift also weakens the unified structure created when the frame and body are properly connected to each other. A solid, non-compressible body lift puck maintains this connection.

So which is it?

Both. Never over torqued mine. Never had a problem.

Anything to get away from the coil debate, eh?

It was getting boring. But you not understanding how the body mount isolaters work is pretty irritating.

Take the bet or keep talking. Your choice.

They just feed into each other. There's enough misunderstanding here without any hope of even considering how things actually work to bother much longer. Dude's only defense is you have to go to Kansas of all places to argue in person with someone that likely wouldn't even believe the JKS issue if you showed it in person.

You get to be on the YouTubes though!

5 grand in your pocket is irritating? OK, believe as you will. You'd be going home $1,000.00 lighter if you had the guts to back up your talk.

Why does everything have to be about this bet? Why not just talk tech and explain it?

You were starting to say that you can notice the difference of a 20lb spring rate... but why? What is it doing that makes it different?

Because he can't. (Prove me wrong)

I tried and failed. I got a lecture about how physics applies everywhere equally (and somehow not to the magical OME special springs). J warned us about it a long time ago though.

We are too dumb to understand, you know? Just like with Bender.

At least metalcloak realized they should stop arguing and stick to marketing.

What's the purpose of the rubber?

to cover you up so you don’t reproduce and fuck the next generation up with your dumb ass qualities
