Old Man Emu really had their work cut out for themselves in developing an integrated suspension system for the Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2. The WK2 runs an independent front and independent rear suspension setup and is available in a number of engine variants. The key areas that were addressed in the design of these components were lift, load carrying capability, and comfort. With the WK2 being a mid-sized SUV, the original suspension provided a comfort-orientated ride, which had a tendency to top out and frequently contact the bump stops, especially on rougher surfaces and over speed bumps. The WK2’s factory geometry allowed for a 40 to 50mm lift, which improves overall wheel travel and off road capability. To meet this need longer travel shocks and struts were developed for improved down travel and were tuned to match the new spring specifications.

Cash for clunkers: Is it ready for prime time in America?

Tue, 31 Mar 2009

One proposed solution to prop up new-car sales in the United States involves paying bonuses to owners of older vehicles who send their cars to the scrapyard and buy new ones. Proponents say that not only does the auto industry benefit, but so does the environment, as emissions decrease and fuel economy typically improves in newer models. Critics, however, say that scrapping older vehicles hurts collectors by reducing the number of older models available and also hurts those least able to afford to buy newer vehicles by driving up the price of used cars.
