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.

BMW Vision ConnectedDrive (2011) first pictures

Thu, 10 Feb 2011

This gorgeous two-seat roadster is the BMW Vision ConnectedDrive, set to be unveiled at the 2011 Geneva motor show. Unlike some of BMW’s other Vision-tagged concept cars, this unfortunately isn’t a thinly disguised production car, but a study designed to highlight the company’s driver assistance systems.  However, although BMW has released no details on the engine or layout under the sexy skin, thankfully the Vision ConnectedDrive’s stunning styling (including the shark nose, wrap-around rear lights and layered body) will find its way onto future production BMWs.  For a start sensors in the headlamps and rear lights monitor the traffic situation and the environment around the car, while instead of wing mirrors there are antennas that receive navigation data and transmit other information. Inside the driver has a 3D head-up display, and the system can project information about the chosen sat-nav route so it appears at the exact point of a possible turn-off. The 3D system also displays information in the foreground or background of the display depending on its relevance.

New techniques cut cost of carbon fiber

Mon, 11 Jul 2011

Carbon fiber, once so costly that it was the preferred material only for fighter planes and supercars, is catching the attention of weight-conscious automakers. Carbon fiber's cost is falling dramatically, thanks to production advances that let suppliers speed the material's finicky, and costly, curing process. One technological breakthrough that makes carbon-fiber auto parts more affordable may come from a process used to make carbon-fiber golf clubs.
