RE: 1600 handling question - understeer & bounce

[Jeff Oldham]

front end all seems stock to me, except for an orange sway bar bout 19-20mm thick chasis rail on drivers side been welded, but due to being smashed i think    thanks for the advice jeff what type of front end are you using?. I use a front sway bar from a 610SSS coupe, The two longish threaded rods at each end ,Biff them away and use nuts and bolts,I use three rubbers per side,and bolted straight to the bottom arms, No link rod.   It also pays to reweld the bottom edge of the front chassis rails ,Have a look at the gaps ,when looking at them with the front wheel off into the front wheel well...   Also look at the front where the torsion arms bolt too,,the spot welds also go their.   Malcolm     ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff Oldham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2003 1:56 PM Subject: 1600 handling question - understeer & bounce Hi troops,     i have a handling question with my 1600 i have understeer that i am trying to equalise also the car feels a bit like the front bounces when it corners and the grip seems to come & go....i can feel it in the steering wheel   this is hard cornering at speed on a race track, not street driving.   will a strutt brace help with these issues ?     thanks Jeff --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
