I am building my own radius arm suspension up front my cousin was looking on rocky road (for the zuki) and saw that there radius arm on the drivers side had a slip in it. The caption to the right confirms this and they say that this slip is in place to keep the arms from binding as one tire goes up and the other goes down. while this makes sense (the binding) I have not seen RE or for that matter any other company use this idea. That or they do a fine job of camoflaging the slip part of the link. My question is do i need to use this. will the links bind in articulation if I use no slip. Does any of your long arm suspensions have this slip. Note the radius arms they use at rocky road have a fixed y arm at the long arm. where most of the kits I see sold have a joint on both ends of the y arm. My simple brain tells me that this is how RE and such get away with out having a slip. Look guys I know all of this is confusing. I Thought I new how I was going to do all of this but now my cousin has got me all confused so please some one set this debate straight Thanks
