1. A linkage device, configured to be attached to a suspension arm of a vehicle and to a vehicle frame of the vehicle, wherein the linkage device is configured to mechanically modify one or more physical inputs detected by a sensor of the vehicle, thereby causing the sensor to output modified signals to a controller, and causing the controller to output modified control signals to a variable shock absorber connected between the vehicle frame and the suspension arm, thereby modifying one or more variable physical properties of the variable shock absorber.
