Re: 2537 Teaser
It looks like your bumpers will attach to the frame where the frame is supported by your suspension. Is there a chance that they will be able to move more than an inch up and down? The reason I ask is:

 STANDARD BUMPERS must remain within the BUMPER ZONE when the ROBOT is resting on the floor in PLAYING CONFIGURATION. They must not be articulated or moved outside of the BUMPER ZONE

Your frame moving up and down could move the bumpers which are 5 inches wide outside the bumper zone with is only 6 inches wide. I would hate to see you put the work into a great suspension system to only see you not be able to use it. Hopefully, your travel up and down is limited and this will not be a problem. I love what you have done.
