I finally saw a Jag IRS setup
Well I went to the Carlisle show this week end. Glad I went, wish I had had even more time there.
I got to see several Jag IRS setups. I have got to tell you I was shocked. The inboard brakes look near impossible to service, although it can be done, and I was expecting that. But what blew me away is the lack of any upper arms to hold things together.
If a U-joint were to break not only do you loose the ability to connect the brake to that wheel, but the wheel is going to tilt in. What a death trap waiting to happen. No way you are going to survive if this happens at full power and moderate speed -- IMHO.
Is this a common known no $hit or am I totally wrong.
