OFF ROAD and ON TRACK

In 2.5 weeks we took the striped off road Armada and turned in back into a comfort street/off road machine.  As is customary for me and the team this was about half the time required for a job of this size and night turnedinto day and back into night again in one very long rolling shift. Electric windows, A/C, new interior, re design rear cage, new paint, new wrap and a host of other modifications are now done.

“it was the last extra mile that killed him”  those will be the words on my tombstone.  Until then we will        continue to go that extra mile to make sure that projects like this get completed even when it hurts.

The Hydrogen Hybrid unit was installed and once again tested and it produced amazing results. I will post the emissions tests on the web site in a page dedicated to this system. prior to that 2 more independent tests will be conducted in order to fully establish, (to me anyway) that the reduction in hydrocarbon emissions from this big nasty SUV have truly reached the levels recorded thus far.  All i can say at this point is that the damn thing works, and i am completely amazed at how well.  And yes for those who are interested, the by product of the reduced emissions is indeed an increase in fuel economy. 

So all in all, to sum up the SAV project I present the fol owing specs for the truck.

Suspension:

Rear travel: 28″   Sway Away  triple by pass shocks and coil carriers. Mounted on a 3 link system that is tucked up underneath and inside the Armada.

Rear End: Dynatrac  Dana 60

42 gal fuel cell

Crow harnesses, interior covered in wet suit material, Eurojet Carbon Fiber front seats, Carbon fiber speaker boxes in the rear, hand formed aluminum body panels, Auto Meter Gauges, and Lowrance GPS

Front Suspension: Fox Shocks, by pass and coil carriers,  Travel 17″

Hydrogen Hybrid:  HESS gen II  single cell system.  Hydrogen and oxygen gas is injected into the intake of the motor producing dramatic results. the system by which it is introduced is controlled and managed from a electronic control unit specifically designed for this motor and its needs.
