What are some of the pro's and con's of both that may not be evident to a newbie? Like I mentioned on an earlier thread, In the Army our humvees where full Independat suspension. I would like to think if SFA's where superior that they would have went with a setup that boasted that. |

[quote="dano104"]What are some of the pro's and con's of both that may not be evident to a newbie? Like I mentioned on an earlier thread, In the Army our humvees where full Independat suspension. I would like to think if SFA's where superior that they would have went with a setup that boasted I'll start with a few: IFS PRO: Smoother on-road ride Tighter steering possible Less body motion offroad (cabin stays straight, wheels go up and down. With SFA the whole thing moves) SFA PRO: Typically higher ground clearance More aftermarket parts available Easier to lift Can handle more torque (I'm guessing that a solid axle is stronger than an IFS setup) Cheaper! |
