You wouldn't need take tracks
With this system and big tires you wouldn't need the tracks. With that additional ground clearance and aggressive tires my max would be unstoppabe. By keeping all tires tires on the ground I could fly over rocks and logs without losing traction. I am guessing a 60% increase in off road ability. That is scary cuz I can already go anywhere! I can only see one draw back here and that is additional drag in water from the lower a arms.Originally posted by micmac View PostWhipper I would like to say that if this system works it will revolutionize the AATV industry. It has been my contention that this is what these machines need for mass appeal (Max and Argo you guys listening?). Think of the traction that you'd have as the machine suspension articulated over the terrain.
I hope the all the R&D works well and your able to produce a kit for the max IV soon! (sign me up for the group buy!)
I wonder how this would work with a track kit. Would the suspension take the forces associated with track? Would the up down movement of the suspension cause a larger distance between the front and rear wheels stretching the track. Or would the track limit the suspension? I really don't plan on running tracks but I know a lot of people would be interested on how these two mods would interact.
I'm sooo jealous of you guys with these machine shops at your disposal!
anxiously awaiting testing videos

Whipper, I have got to have a set of these for my max. I think its time you went into the suspension business! I want a set! How much and how soon can I get them. Take this over to the folks at Recreative Industires and get a contract to start producing them as an option on there machines. This really is a must have here. The extra ground clearance provided here will make my MaxIV unstoppable, The Ability to hit stuff at speed will make a 6x6 unsurpassed. E-mail me with a price.

Whipper, even though that video had no moving AATVs in it, I think it was the best one that I have ever seen. Like hydromike, it brought out so many emotions in me. Perfectly edited from the music to the lights turning on in your shop. I want to see more, I need to see more! I CAN NOT WAIT
Only 8 hours from right now and you should be firing it up! tick tock tick tock, hurry up clock!

The time has come!!!!
Hey Whip, I like the video, I wish I could be out there with you in the morning. Good luck and be careful I predict you will reach at least 65mph and fly over what may get in your way! Tell Bridget to watch out for those jumping boulders that some how manage to jump out in front of her. At least we know where we can get a new axle made for her. Let me know how it goes CHADMANOriginally posted by whipper-ag View PostWell guys, the Yellow Spider is Done.We're gonna tear up the desert Sunday morning 6am,try to beat the heat,suppost to be 112deg.

Waaay Cool. I can't wait to see the beast perform. How much weight do you think the set-up added? I'm interested to see how it affects flotation, Whipper. Do you think the Attex will still swim well?
Great work, put me down for a kit!
