Lmao y’all are such haters it’s hilarious to see you guys who have done “a few outboards” try to trash a guy who has done literally hundreds of outboards for a profession and has experimented with geometry an incredible amount over the years. Not with a calculator but real world trial and error. What Dave has done is offer a super low cost way to improve a short arm setup. That’s all. $160 to be exact. There’s no doubt if I had infinite money I’d be running a full midarm setup if I could afford it. But something for $160 that uses whatever arms I already have, substantially decreases body roll, improves handling, eliminates rear steer, makes it so I don’t have to trim my wheel well anymore to make room for the tire under articulation, eliminates track bar clearance issues, eliminates bind on Jack stands for easier more accurate cycling, and reduces hopping on climbs. All using my existing arms, that’s a pretty fucking sweet modification for the buck. Is it as good at climbing as the savvy midarm? No. Dave designed it to be an all around improvement for everything and make the rig more enjoyable to drive everywhere. Not necessarily to be the best at one thing. Savvy guys, we aren’t taking anything away from you lmao. Just saying this is a low cost viable option to make the rig drive better in all regards. And until you drive something Dave built then “you don’t know what you don’t know” as everyone seems to be saying lately.
@rasband not to single you out but you can’t really compare the climbing characteristics of an LJ to a TJ. That’s a lot of wheelbase difference.
