JC Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 You can control bump a little using bump rubbers. I don't understand in this context??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 well i'm just going by what others have experienced mate, if i were to get uprated cams i would always go with newman! Nothing wrong with Kent. There's lots wrong with people who don't follow the bedding-in instructions that Kent supply with their CVH cams. I've never seen a worn Zetec cam, from anyone, including OEM!

Ahmotorsport Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 You can control bump a little using bump rubbers. I don't understand in this context??? You can control the body roll by increasing the stiffness of the suspension. If you don't want to pay coil over prices, or uprated damper prices, you can use bump rubbers to help stiffen it up.

Stu Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Controlling roll by stiffening the shock absorber package is the last thing you want to do and is a massive compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
