Is anyone making arms and spindles that will allow almost unlimited movement as far as wheel travel and steering rotation of the spindle? Usually the heim or ball is located horizontally or vertically, and will eventually limit travel or steering angle. Are there any "double-jointed" setups out there?

Thanks.

The Truggy has something like that. Also the FST truck was running dual pivot joints on it. With the movment you can get from a uniball, why would you want to add parts/ complexity/ things to wear out?

Not my idea...I don't believe in going fast. Who's FST and which truck is "the" truggy?

Thanks

FST trophy truck was owned by Mark Dye?
