I thought that poly wouldn't make a big difference in the front either but I was quite surprised. After installing the prototype Delrin lined bushings (both upper and lower control arms) and the adjustable UCA spindle I was amazed at how much better it felt, even on the lift. Like in the rear, with the poly bushings installed (and no spring in place) when the spindle was lifted to full bump it wouldn't fall back down under its own wieght due to the binding. I installed the prototypes up front and the only force you had to exert to lift the spindle was the wieght of the components. Let it go and it falls down freely under its own wieght. Quote:
We are close. I've been very happy with the performance so far although it's been hard to quantify as reliability issues with my car's power steering have made it hard to get officially timed laps because I'm in the garage. I'm hoping to get out to Watkins Glen in Sept, back to NHMS in Oct and down to NJMP in Nov to complete the reliability testing and then tear it all down for inspection. I'm hoping to have news of a release by The Holidays. |
