Title: Video - omega front suspension
Post by: Bojan on 24 May 2016, 14:33:10
Here's a nice video of omega's front suspension in action.
It's driven quite hard over rough surface (typical russian roads).

You can see/imagine the stress and forces that control arm bushes endure.

That's a good use for a Go-Pro!


It's a perfect demonstration of why you have to disconnect the droplinks  to accurately diagnose a knock.

Wow, I've never seen the suspension in action before. As well as the lower arms I didn't realise how much of a beating the ARB and drop links take. No wonder we change lots of DL's at work  :o
