Front suspension geometry
Does anyone know how the front suspension is on these handling wise? What I mean by that is, does using lowering springs improve or degrade the geometry. Are there other modifications that can be done to improve geometry?
I AM NOT refering to "just adding" a swaybar. I AM talking about camber curves. Does the front suspension add negative camber as it goes into compression? I know one thing that they do on the 1st gen camaros (called the goldstrand mod) is to move the upper control arm mounting point up to improve the camber curve. Is this sort of thing beneficial to our trucks. I haven't seen any suspension upgrades for our trucks other than spring/shocks/swaybars, and really most of the springs and shocks are just to lower them, not neccessarily to improve handling (other than just the benefits of having a lower CG). Maybe I'm crazy trying to get one of these trucks to turn a corner My goal is to out perform a Lightning. Acceleration wise is not too much of a challenge, but the lightnings actually handle pretty good for a truck. |
