You will receive 'thanks' after the guest evaluates you information, checks the performance to ANSI, UL, TUV, ISO9001, ETC. finding your information helpful. Otherwise, you could be sued or accused of bias then sued for millions. Maybe with a guy like this it is best to leave selfish dogs lie.

Please understand that some (many?) won't see responses immediately; I, for example, get the "digest" form, and due to an external filter set up by our crack IT department, that digest is unavailable until the next day. I can't even see the posted questions until more than 24 hours have elapsed. If the OP (Original Poster) has a similar delay, (s)he won't even SEE your answer until next day, much less thank you for it.

does anyone know if this truck could pull a load?

Love the results, and apparent high quality of those wheel motors..

Hope they will not be taking these too far off road, the "Un-sprung weight would be a killer"

"Unsprung mass" is the mass that is not floating on the suspension

This mass hits a bump and gets pushed at quite a velocity, and the suspension system must decelerate that mass before it hits the upper travel, and again when its returning to the other end of travel (compression and rebound)

The greater the unsprung mass, the more beefy the shockers have to be, generally your trying to keep your unsprung mass to a minimum.

The shockers are not just trying to suppress the momentum of this mass, but also the compression of the body weight of the vehicle upon returning to the ground.

Upon the cost of the "inwheel electric motors" how much are you willing to spend on your shockers? Over here in Oz, we are paying well over $1000 each for a good Foxx Shox shocker, this price would have to be added to the cost of the finished vehicle.
