guys who knows a lot in suspension please explain

[burnikin]

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

[Ungas]

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:

[Ungas]

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.

Thanks

[kiper]

wala akong naintindihan dun ahh..:oops:

ano ba ung brake lines na yan..?

[burnikin]

KIPER
i think we need Ungas here
hehehehe

Yooohooooooo UNGAS explain

[tebs]

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.

[Ungas]

wala akong naintindihan dun ahh..:oops:

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:

[tebs]

hehehe... :lol:

at least detailed! :wink:

[OTEP]

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.

Nowadays, even if you have a torn brake line, you will still have braking power left because the hydraulic system of the LF tire and the RR tire are independent from hydraulic system of the RF tire and the LR tire. On other vehicles, the front brakes are independent of the rear brakes.

Brake lines are the rubber hoses that enter into the brake calipers. Kitang-kita sila from underneath or when the wheels are off.

tandem brake system :wink:

[ARB]

bronze ba, i thought copper tubes yan, steel tube naman for trucks.

[boybi]

alam ko din copper tubes. baka yung safari ni Ungas pina bronze na nya :mrgreen:

[Ungas]

Then copper it is. Correction noted. :D

[burnikin]

UNGAS Oks naman ang explanation ni tebats e...
pero iba pag ikaw e ... ur THE MAN :mrgreen:

Otep Sa strada ko ba ganun din? 8O

[afrasay]

may steel po. yon nasa undercarriage. yon copper tubing sa mga owner type jeep usually ginagamit.

[OTEP]

burnikin,

Tandem brake systems are required by law in all major markets. Wala na po atang non-tandem system sa panahong ito.

[burnikin]

:D
