Are there any cheap options in keeping the front axle wrap under control?
I have a long arm suspension just like a RE radius arm and have noticed that the front end really starts to hop under throttle when on really steep climbs and racing in deep sand. I built the long arms almost 5 years ago and its been great but after the increase in power from a stroker and me pushing the limits of the Jeep further I have found some flaws in this type of design. The last trip I was out I was on a really steep muddy wet rock climb and the front kept hoping around at the top when under throttle and ended when the passenger side tire droped into a crack which broke an inner shaft and spit the U joint caps out of my front Dana 44. Alloys are on order but that doesnt fix the axle wrap. I have done some searching and would love to have a URF hidden 3 link but time and money are not on my side at the current moment.
Thanks,
AARON
