I have been eyeing this style of bump steer kit for sometime. Does anyone here have first hand experience with this and does anyone know if the kit is available cheaper elsewhere?
Thanks! Attached thumbnail(s)

I use the ERP (Smart Racing) jobbies along with rack spacers....I also have raised spindles which necessitate these. They work as advertised tho I don't think they are as strong as the stock pieces. Cheeper nowhere I could find.
I looked at Elephant & bought ERP. None of this shittage is necessary for a streetcar....IMO. I was fresh out of shock travel before raising the spindles & I don't run the car all that low. |

Thanks JP, Other than the bumpsteer problem, I happen to like the way my lowered car looks and rides and I use it for both the street and track. Why wouldn't this "shittage" be necessary for a lowered street car if the WM rack spacers don't fix the problem? But really why would it matter if I didn't auto-x or do DE events? The problem would still be there as a street car. Aren't streets and back roads bumpier than most tracks anyways? In fact, I don't notice it much when I'm on the track. I'm too focused on everything else I guess. |
