solid mounted front end
#7
If you rigidly mount both ends of the damper arms you have created something that is very restrictive of suspension movement & tries to counteract the up and down movement of the front spring. It'll be very crashy on the front. Agree with Alan, immobilise only one end this will sort out most of the lateral movement. I did it on my supercharged special and the front end is pretty well planted.

On mine I fabricated up a 3mm steel plate that is trapped between the spring & chassis, it has the 2 round mounts for the left & right friction shocks + the bracket holding the blower. In effect I have the sports double shock conversion being offered by one of the cherished suppliers. It's gusseted and double plated where required and after a good caning up the hill at Simola has proved up to the task.
