guys who knows a lot in suspension please explain

Editor's Note: For actual gains in frontend articulation, you must remove all droop limiting factors. These include adding 1)longer shocks, 2)longer brake lines, and 3)disconnecting your swaybars. These modifications will affect your vehicle's onroad stability, so use common sense

what does # 2 and 3 imply? :?:

thanks

2)longer brake lines; pag fully entended ang suspension, may tendency na mahatak ang brake lines coming from the chassis. Kaya nila pinapahaba ito para siguradong hindi mapuputol yung brake line hose.

3)disconnecting your swaybars; this limits the full extension of one side to another. Hence by it's name, anti-sway bars. Pag nadisconnect ito the vehicle has full capacity for longer extension and compression from each side of the vehicle. Connected, it will perform its function. Sa mga hardcore offroaders inaalis nila ito, to give them full suspension articulation advantage. Without it, the whole vehicle would feel wobbly and bouncy from each different sides when driven around city limits.

Ungas
thank you very much for explaining
well if i do a 1" - 2" lift do i have to extend my brake lines?

:roll:

Lifting 1-2 inch will have little to no effect on vehicle parts. I could say that it is still safe for you to use your existing oem brake lines when lifted upto 2 inch. And with that kind of lift, you don't have to worry about your anti-sway bars.

brake lines ang nagsusupply ng brake fluid sa brakes ng sasakyan. tubes lang yan.

kailangan ng brake fluid (which acts as the means to transfer the force) to be able to actuate or mapagana yung brakes.

Diyan po dumadaan yung brake fluid na nilalagay mo sa brake fluid reservoir above the master brake kit. Dadaan ito sa bronze tubing around the vehicle then pababa sa rubber hose/lines. Papasok naman ito sa brake pistons which will activate the brake pads to stop and/or prevent the vehicles forward or backward motion. Hinahabaan ang rubber brake lines kasi ito ang nakakaranas madalas ng galaw ng suspension and wheels.

Kung maputulan ka nito, hindi gagana ang lahat ng brake system mo at tatagas lang ang mga brake fluids mo palabas, which inturn you will lose braking power on all four wheels.

Langya, pinahabaan ko pa explanation, mas madaling intindihin yung sinulat ni tebs. :mrgreen:
