Why can’t you hear the sound of metal scraping against metal when a car is driving on a bumpy road? Why do we often say that a car feels ‘soft’ or ‘stiff’? How is this achieved through suspension tuning? That’s right—it’s all down to the car’s bushings! Durable Car Bushings serve to absorb shocks, reduce friction, extend the life of components and enhance comfort. Who would have thought such a sma...
First, let me show you a picture so you can see how many bushings are used in the suspension. Have any of you ever wondered why suspension systems are designed with so many bushings? The quality of the bushings determines the overall performance of the vehicle! The reason why suspension systems are designed with a large number of bushings is not simply ‘for the sake of complexity’, but rather the ...
