Testing EVO IX on DynojetThe Dynojet 424xLC2 represents the latest all-wheel drive offering from Dynojet. Capable of being installed in ground or above ground, the 424xLC2 can accommodate wheelbases ranging from 88-140 inches. Featuring dual Eddy Current Absorption units, the 424xLC2 can apply a load to the drive wheels for steady-state tuning.Load test capabilities include step, sweep and custom road-load profiles. Power pulls can also be made in a pure inertia mode too. With Dynojet’s Linx system, a V-ribbed belt and a series of pulleys keep the rollers spinning at the same rate, ensuring trouble free compatibility with modern all-wheel drive platforms or two-wheel drive vehicles that require all wheels to be spinning to avoid triggering an error code or a response from the traction control unit
