The Mor-Ryde suspension system will not and cannot do the same work as a shock that is directly over the axle in a vertical position with a max of 35 degrees of offset. The Mor-Ryde system works on torrosion or a resistance to allow one spring assembly up and the other end goes down. Simply stated; if the front axle goes over a bump there is a resistance from the rubber torrsion to hold that spring down by placing torrsion on the rear part of the spring, but will allow some movement. When this happens the rear axle front section of the spring is pushed down with resistance from the rubber torrsion ( The rear and upward movement of the spring on the front axle counteracts with the front part of the spring on the rear axle movement). This system dampens the holes and small bumps on a road etc. but does not control the large bumps, railway tracks from the large bounce and this is where shocks come into play and directly act on that axle to control repetitive and a ripple effect of bounce. Both Dexter and Monroe will attest to this. Anyone that is in the suspension business on design will verify the above when working with any high speed mobile equipment.
