2.3.6 3/4-elliptic
Like the 1/4 elliptic suspension, the 3/4-elliptic setup (often called
a "buggy spring") is intended for maximum articulation off-road.
Adding to the standard 1/2-elliptic stock setup with another 1/2-length
spring from the shackle to the frame above the axle, a 3/4-elliptic
setup should be driveable on the street while articulating very well
on the trail. Although an easier modification than a 1/4-elliptic setup,
the 3/4-elliptic suspension is usually tackled only by those who drive
their Samurais primarily off-road and who have the fabrication skills
and a backup vehicle at their disposal.
