and no one will ever convince me different. Thats why the make absolutely no sense. If you can understand simple engineering, a weld isn't as strong as a u bolt wrapped around an object. If you think there so great, go get some. I think there stupid, end of story.

 

If you still cant understand I will make some at work and weld them to a tube and measure the force it takes to rip them off(with an x rayed weld) then ill make a mock u bolt setup and see how hard the stress machine has to work to pull that apart. You wont like the results, this stupid thing will get shot down.I work I. An industry where things cant break, so I do know what I'm talking about. Next time I'm machining parts for Boeing, ill take something that has always worked good and change it to something stupid like this, then see what happens.

 

id still use them. its going to take a lot of force to rip those off. i work in a steel mill so i know what im talking about too. theres always going to be new ideas.. like them or not

 

Hit a pothole on the freeway and well see......

 

lol i doubt that. must be some terrible welds.

 

Working at a steel mill is different, I have people's lives in my hands when Im at work. How many parts leave your machine and go to NASA?

 

our steel goes all over. we replace parts all the time in the mill. so our own lives are on the line when we put things together or add new things. we cant just slap it on there and call it good.we're talking about a modified spring perch with some bolts. not some **** thats going on a rocket ship. if the part was that bad i really doubt they would still be selling it and you wouldnt see anyone running it.

 

Yes, you press out a bar, that I am then responsible for making into hi TEC parts. I know steel mill tolerances, thats a laughing matter.

 

But were kinda off topic, still unsafe compared to a wrapping device like a u bolt. Thats it. Ill do the hard numbers to break em if you'd like.

 

yes and you comparing ubolt eliminators to **** from nasa is too.

 

whatever makes you happy. whether you agree with it or not.. id run them. other people would or do. and some people wont.. just like anything else. so you breaking numbers down really isnt making me feel any different about it. just the swaybar discussion. there's always going to be a disagreement about it

 

Still puts others lives in jeopardy

 

lol alright

 

I don't see anything wrong with these when used correctly. These unbolt eliminators are not a new thing, many Toyota guys use them on their baja race trucks and they hold up perfectly fine. I know a few people on NAXJA that run that same kit. Apparently it allows the leaf pack to flex a lil more, but I don't know how that works. Kind of a useless mod if you ask.

 

I think it needs to wrap more around the diameter of the axle housing.
