My special will tramp like mad if I try and reverse in a rush - for example against the clock at a driving test. From the thread on a recently purchased 1936 Ulster it seems I'm not alone with this. Rather than add to that thread (I was going a bit cross eyed there) I thought I'd ask the question here.
Has anyone got to the bottom of the cause and fixed it?
With my car the prop is the late type and rebuilt so no slop. Short damper arms and done up tight. Flat springs. Boxed chassis but the body adds nothing to the rigidity which comes out at about "normal level of not very stiffness". Engine is soft mounted.
If I'm gentle with it then its fine...
