Complete Damping Customization for Professional Off-Road Racing Applications

radflo bypass shock hr 3.0 Bypass Shocks from Radflo Suspension TechnologyFountain Valley, CA – May 2010: For the highest level of performance in the most demanding off-road conditions, Radflo Suspension Technology offers a 3.0” bypass shock absorber. By seamlessly integrating velocity- and position-sensitive valving, Radflo is able to achieve dual shock performance from this single hi-tech damper. As a result, the bypass shock can provide softer damping during initial travel for comfort and smoothness. Without any changes, the same shock can provide much firmer damping during the last few inches of travel to resist bottoming out from harsh impacts. Read More→

ATR Dash Bar – RockCrawler RZR

ATR Dash Bar RockCrawler RZR If you play at all, you are going to flop your RZR…if you play hard, you are likely to do a full roll.  And if you’ve spent any time researching on the internet, you’ve seen the images of the RZR A-pillar bent to one side or the other following a rollover.  The stock RZR rollcage is not the strongest, and while plenty of high quality full replacement aftermarket options exist, there are improvements you can make to your stock cage that will greatly strengthen it and save some money…this is why I chose to install the All Terrain Research Dash Bar w/ V-Brace.

2010 05 NitroBirf 300x166 NITRO CHROMOLY Birfields & AxlesToyota Trucks & Landcruisers are well known for their strength & reliability all over the world.  Out of the box they feature some pretty great drivetrain, but they do have their limits.   The factory axles are 30 spline at the diff, but neck down to 27 spline at the birfield creating a failure point.  Additionally the factory Birfield joints are not built to withstand the added stress of larger tires and heavy offroad use. Nitro Gear & Axle has addressed this by offering a range of Heavy Duty Chromoly Birfield Joints & Axle Shafts. Read More→

THE HALBERD™ DOOR RACK

The doors have always come off of Jeeps, but until now no one has addressed what to do with them once they are removed. Attempting to store them inside the vehicle is dangerous, and takes up valuable cargo and passenger space, not tomention scratching them when they rub against each other. The alternatives aren’t much better – leaving them somewhere chained to a tree or bike rack, lugging them up steps into an apartment or hotel,  or being forced to drive in wet or cold weather because you left them at home.   Worst of all is simply not taking them off when you really waned to.

Bigelow Motorsports Secures spot in the 2011 King of the Hammers race

By RockCrawler.com · Comments (1)
Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Emmitsburg, MD-May 18 2010- Doug Bigelow, the owner and driver of the #4413 Bigelow Motorsports Ultra 4 race buggy, qualified for the 2011 King of the Hammers Ultimate Desert Race in Johnson Valley, CA with a 3rd place podium finish at the May 7th Rausch Creek Qualifier. “It is a great feeling knowing that we are qualified for the race this early in the year. It would have been great to qualify in the big race in February but mechanical issues took us out and getting a chance to redeem our team with a podium finish at the RCQ race was paramount for us. Knowing we have the better part of 9 months to test and tune and finalize sponsor commitments for 2011 is an added bonus as well”, noted Bigelow. “All of my teammates have worked hard to go back to Johnson Valley since we came back from the big race in February. Our number one goal was getting the vehicle back in shape and rallying the team around getting prepared for the qualifiers this year so that we could have the opportunity to make it back to the big show. Without them there is no way I could have done it. The King of the Hammers race showed this year that it is a race for the ages and it will attract the best drivers in the country from all types and disciplines. Its a great feeling for our sponsors and our team to be qualified into the race this early in the year”, Bigelow also said. Read More→
