too bumpy

Postby deepseadcs » Thu Feb 09, 2006 8:11 pm

My gpx ride is too bumpy? checked droplink and is slightly bend. Already ordered front and rear droplink. What else should I take in consideration. I just want to minimize those bumpy feeling....

Deepdsea, at a bare minimum, change the front and rear anti-rollbar bushes while you're doing the droplinks:

Front ARB bushes
Rear ARB bushes

If you want to for that tight suspension feeling, consider changing the following bushes while you're at it. Some of the rears have to be pressed into place so they can be tricky to install if you don't have the right kit:

Rear outer bottom arm bushes
Rear inner bottom arm bushes
Rear camber bolts
Rear outer lower arm bolts
Front bottom arm rear bush (extra castor)

Cheers CJ, added front and rear ARB bushes in my order. I'll be busy this week hope this is not hard to do. After this if not satisfied i'll work on the remaining bushes and bolts.
