wristed arm

I dont see how a wristed arm would be beneficial. The radius arm itself will still be in a fixed position. How would those few inches after the bolt allow the axle to articulate. Maybe this is a dumb question but its just doesnt make sense so me. Wouldnt u rather want it to pivot closer to the radium arm bracket?

Thanks,
Will

it basically turns the side you wrist into just one link, rather than a ladder bar type setup....rather than the bushings trying to let the axle twist as it travels it's range of maotion, the wrist in the arm lets it move
