With products like this it will only help keep off-roading popular with the newer vehicles. Way to be innovators.
Good question, but remember the inner CV is a tripod type which allows the inner axle to move in-and-out with wheel travel. So it has a more limited range of motion. FAQ Round #2Here come some responses to inquires we've received on other media outletsAble to Daily Drive?It will daily drive 100% like any other LT kit on the market. I will be daily driving our next RCLT HD kit starting next month. The biggest thing you will notice is increased body roll due to a lack of a front sway bar.MarRack Included?Only the RCLT HD Kit will come with the MarRack because factory steering cannot physically allow a knuckle to be moved forward 2-inches.The RCLT Standard Kit, which moves the knuckles forward only 1-inch, is compatible with factory steering. You could chose to upgrade to the MarRack later if desired.Shocks Included?We are a Radflo distributor and will offer their LT shocks. The only thing to note is that the RCLT HD Kit will require LT shocks that have heim joints top and bottom.Axle Shafts Included?We will offer +2" and +2.75" extended length replacement inner axle shafts (you reuse your factory outer CVs) as well as +2" and +2.75" RCV Ultimate Shaft kits.Ins-and-OutsI wrote in reply #2, "Associated parts for installation", which refers to the stuff that makes up a kit such as bushings, sleeves, grease zerts, bolts, washers, misalignment spacers, limiting strap, brake lines and mounting clips, tie rod steering extensions (if applicable), and so on. I'll be editing that post with actual Kit Images as well as new categories and products added to our website this spring.Can RCLT and/or RCLT HD be desert raced?First and foremost, there are better kits for Baja than either RCLT which are optimized for Rock Crawling. Probably the best way to answer this is as follows:Why the Standard Kit is better for Baja than the HD:Less unsprung weight (mainly) due to factory knuckles being lighter than our HD knucklesThe factory knuckle's top vertical ball joint allows for a more compact UCA (narrow single shear vs wide double shear ball joint mount) so you'll likely to have a bit more maximum up travel prior to modifying sheet metalDepending on tire size and wheel offset, would likely not require larger fendersWhy the HD Kit is better for Baja than the Standard:The track width is 37.5% larger (2.75" vs 2") for better suspension travel and cornering/off-camber stabilityHorizontal ball joints do not encounter misalignment issues so theoretically they allow more travel. If 2WD then substantially more travelDouble-shear ball joints and steering TRE connection are way stronger and can handle far higher loads (both hitting whoops and landing jumps)MarRack is required and provides incredible steering strength, however it could be added to the Standard kit tooRegards,BigMike
That's a shitty design. May work for your mall crawler but that should have never left the shop knowing it's going into a race. Hope they come up with a good fix for the big race on friday.
