Abstract
Rotational reactionary forces associated with drive trains which propel vehicles are harnessed and employed to move vehicle sub-components. The motor of a motor driven vehicle is mounted to the frame of the vehicle. The motor includes an output shaft that extends from the motor. The motor functions to rotate the output shaft, which rotation propels the vehicle. The motor further includes a motor housing from which the output shaft extends. The motor housing is pivotally mounted to the frame of the vehicle so as to allow substantial rotation of the motor housing with respect to the frame. The motor housing pivots in response to reactionary forces associated with the rotation of the output shaft. The motor housing interacts with sub-components of the vehicle such that the pivoting of the motor housing imparts motion upon the sub-components, such as air spoilers, suspension members, or trim adjustment devices.
