Clayton Off Road Inc. long arm upgrade kits are perfect for anyone who has a lifted Jeep, and is looking for that next step. What this long arm upgrade kit is intended for is anyone who wants to upgrade their current lift kit to a high quality long arm kit. This kit comes with a 3 piece cross member, upper and lower adjustable control arms. The 3 piece cross member bolts into the oem location for alignment purposes, then welds on for strength. The center section is removable if your drivetrain needs to be serviced without having to remove any suspension components. Whether you have a short arm kit and just hate how it rides, or a competitors long arm kit that is falling apart, this kit will solve all your problems. Any long arm kit will provide better geometry by decreasing the angles on the lower arms. This greatly helps with ride quality. The length of the lower arms, also helps with flex and climbing ability off road. Where our kits rises above the rest is in the attention to details. At the frame ends we use Currie Johnny Joints which provide the flex everyone is looking for. Currie Johnny Joints now offer 40 degrees of unrestricted movement in any direction as compared to 22 degrees on a common heim joint. Another advantages between a johnny joint and a heim joint are in the actual components they are built from. A heim joint has a metal spherical ball, usually a teflon sleave, and is encased in metal housing. This provides little if any shock absorption. A johnny joint is similar however that metal spherical ball is encased in a high density "tough 88" urethane that allows for some give. At the axle end we use a Clevite mechanically bonded bushing which is pressed into a custom machined sleeve. These are far superior to any easily pressed in poly bushing. We use the maintenance free bushing on the axle end because it is going to see more mud, water and rock abuse and its encased in a thicker housing. The Johnny joint is more protected from the elements at the frame end, providing you a longer time period between greasing or changing out bushings. Between the improved geometry, quality johnny joints and clevite bushings, along with our lifetime guaranteed control arms, this is the best and last lift kit you will ever have to purchase.

Cheap mods: Adventures In Aspect Ratios

Fri, 16 May 2014

Seven years ago, I bought a rough-looking-but-good-running 1992 Honda Civic DX hatchback, for use as a gas-sipping alternative to my daily-driver P71 Crown Victoria. These days, it's the car I drive when it snows in Denver, and it's a reliable all-around beater. The EG Civic (as the 1992-95 Civic hatchback was designated by the factory) has become a much-sought-after classic in recent years, sort of the '55 Chevy of the early 21st century, and there's such a vast array of factory and aftermarket performance hardware available that I haven't been able to resist the idea of doing some power and suspension upgrades.

Volvo City Safe means lower insurance preniums for Volvo drivers

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

Volvo’s City safe has reduced insurance premiums for Volvo owners Volvo are on a mission to ensure that no one dies or is seriously injured in a Volvo by 2020, and that means more and more clever technology to protect Volvo drivers from the dangers of driving. One of those technologies is Volvo’s City Safe, a low speed (up to 31mph) collision avoidance system, that uses a laser at the top of the windscreen to monitor traffic and will automatically brake the car if its senses no reaction from the driver when a collision is imminent. So good is City Safe that Thatcham – the people who set insurance groups for cars – has decided Volvos fitted with City Safe should be rated in a lower group.
